Correlation and regression modeling of the grain production cost

Abstract

The study of the efficiency of the grain economy has shown that its level is determined by production costs. Correlation and regression analysis of the factors of the production cost of 100 kg of grain has revealed that its value is determined, first of all, by the level of intensification of the industry and the yield capacity of grain and leguminous crops. According to the obtained result, in order to lower level the production cost of 100 kg of grain, the value of production costs per hectare of area under crops should not exceed 10.5 thousand rubles (the level of intensification) and the yield of grain and leguminous crops should not be less than 17.5 dt/ha. Otherwise, the production cost of 100 kg of grain will be too high, which will lead to a decrease in the profitability of the grain economy.
