This course gives an overview and insight into the economics of the farm business, with a focus on financial management and accounting. Like corporate managers, farm managers continuously have to make decisions and control their business. There is a need to adapt their business to the current external environment and to anticipate future internal and external developments. For this purpose, farm managers need reliable financial data based on a well-defined accounting system, a good analysis of this data, and information for decision making. Stakeholders like banks, suppliers, and the government also have an interest in reliable data and information from farms. This course deals with the financial management and accounting of farm businesses both from the perspective of the farm manager and the other stakeholders.  
Note: emphasis will be on both qualitative and (particularly) quantitative analysis and explanation.
