4 PROJECTED COSTS FOR CRAWFISH PRODUCTION IN LOUISIANA, 2015 by Robert W. Boucher and Jeffrey M. Gillespie 1 INTRODUCTION Crawfish production enterprises, like other farm enterprises, require advanced planning to make production decisions that are likely to result in profit. The purpose of this report is to provide production cost estimates for crawfish enterprises. These estimates may assist producers in making decisions and obtaining adequate financing. Crawfish production and its associated costs differ considerably among producers and resource situations. The projected costs presented here should not be interpreted as averages for producers in the industry. The purpose of the cost projections is to provide guidelines whereby producers and others with an interest in crawfish production costs can make cost estimates appropriate to their unique situations. Data used in development of the budgets are a combination of information obtained directly from producers, Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service specialists and Louisiana Agricultural Experiment Station scientists. Current machinery and other input price data were combined with production practice data using the Microcomputer Enterprise Budget Generator developed at Mississippi State University. Fixed costs were estimated based on typical rates of use and sizes of operations. Production budget estimates are presented on a 'per acre' basis to facilitate using the estimates for different sized operations. Overhead costs associated with operation of the farm business have been allocated as a residual claimant on a per acre basis in the enterprise budgets, but have not been included in the computation of breakeven selling prices. Estimates are based on surveys and information provided by researchers and Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service personnel. Budgets are presented for three owner-operator situations without aeration that typify producers included in a 2008 survey: 1) Southwest Louisiana single crop ponds (Table 3), 2) Southwest Louisiana rice-crawfish double crop (Table 4), and 3) Southwest Louisiana rice-crawfish double crop in a fallow rotation (Table 5). Fixed costs for non-aerated systems are based on a 120- acre production unit consisting of six 20-acre ponds configured in two 60-acre units. Harvesting is assumed to be performed by one person using a hydraulic boat with 14 traps per acre for the single crop and 9 traps for the double crop and rotational systems. In Southwest Louisiana, harvesting is assumed to occur every third day during December through February and every other day during March through May. Seasonal yield distributions reflect those reported by producers surveyed in Total season yields are not absolute sample averages, but reflect typical yields reported by respondents. No crawfish returns are included since there are no publicly published sources of crawfish prices. Marketing costs included in the budgets assume that the product is sold to processors and wholesalers in Southwest Louisiana. Table 1 presents a summary comparison of projected costs and yields per acre for the three crawfish production situations. Breakeven selling prices required to recover costs are presented in Table 2 for five alternative yield levels for each crawfish situation. Tables with an "A" designation provide estimated cost budgets, whereas tables with a "B" designation show detailed costs for operations. 1 Research Associate and Martin D. Woodin Endowed Professor, respectively, Department of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness, Louisiana Agricultural Experiment Station, Louisiana State University Agricultural Center, Baton Rouge.
