Details: The Context: Faced with climate change and input inflation, it is crucial for farmers to understand how these changes will influence their costs and income. Indeed, new working methods and new cultures can provide solutions, but their economic viability is difficult to assess. Several Issues Were Identified by Elected Officials of the Rhône-Alpes Territorial Committee During Participatory Work Concerning the Financial Management of Operations Faced with the Current Context: The Relocation of Production Fluctuations in Raw Material Prices Environmental Regulations And Constantly Evolving Food Safety. The Recent Problem of the Sale of Value-Added Products (Organic, Labeled). Diversification as a Solution to Economic Resilience. Initial Training in Agriculture Does Not Always Cover All Aspects of Financial Management The Results of the Survey Among Beneficiaries in 2022 of Financial Management Training Reveal That 41% of Respondents Are Not Satisfied with the Profitability of Their Farm, Putting Thus, there is evidence of a pressing need for improvement in this area. Although 83% of operators say they are competent in terms of controlling production costs, a significant proportion of 45% have not taken into account the consequences of inflation on these costs. This Highlights the Need to Strengthen Their Financial Analysis Skills to Take into Account Changing Economic Factors. This survey also highlighted that 60% of participants expressed the desire to find room for progress to improve the profitability of their operations. However, 45% of them have not yet managed to identify opportunities for such improvements. These results highlight a need for support to help these farmers identify and exploit new areas of progress to develop their profitability. Analysis of the Results Also Indicates a Predominantly Negative Sentiment Among Respondents Regarding Their Level of Financial Management Skills, With a Net Promoter Score (nps) of -33, Suggesting a Significant Need for Skills Building in This Area . In Conclusion: The Data From Our Survey Justifies the Importance of Investing in the Training of Farmers in Financial Analysis. These training courses are essential to help them understand their situation, identify economically viable areas for progress, and thus contribute to strengthening the profitability of their farms, ensuring their resilience in the face of economic and environmental challenges, and promoting sustainable agriculture.
