]]> The tool is an Excel spreadsheet.  Farmers can enter their income and expenses for the year, and calculate profit.  The tool will help them estimate these if their records are incomplete.  It is intended to be used one-on-one with a farmer and a program staff person. This tool can be used after a farmer has completed at least one selling season, or it can be used to make an estimated budget for the upcoming year.
