"The Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development (PCARRD) has adopted a set of criteria against which technologies for dissemination could be evaluated. One of these criteria is economic viability which means that a technology proposed for dissemination should offer sufficient economic incentives to the target clientele.
Economic viability analysis is a very important component of technology assessment activity. Economic viability should be determined once the bio-physical suitability of the technology has been established to ensure adoption by target clientele.
This handbook was prepared to assist technical researchers in evaluating the economic viability of agricultural technologies. Various methodologies for economic assessment of technologies are presented in a simplified manner to facilitate understanding. We hope technical researchers will find this handbook useful."
