3.2 Revenue from sales of produce and net income

Before using technology, most of the income came from rice cultivation, but the yield is

very low due to saline soil and water shortages. In an area of 0.16 ha, rice yields 80 kilograms (2.4

ha yields 1,200 kilograms), sold at 0.15-0.18 USD/kg, including income from rice cultivation,
about 176.47 USD/year.

After using technology, they now have a more diverse agricultural production revenue,
such as Manila Tamarind, which produces 1,500 kg, thanks to the use of technology. Sell it for

3,529.41 USD, or 2.35 USD per kilogram. The Manila Tamarind tree is utilized to sell the most

seedlings, 1,470 USD, for a total of 51,470.59 USD, at 1.03 USD per tree. Depending on the breed,
the female calf is sold for 735.29 USD, and the female is sold for 1,470.59-2,941.18 USD. 15,000
