Abstract: ERANA, CHITO AUSTRIA. "CAYAS FISH FARM: A CASE STUDY." B.S. Thesis, Agricultural Economics, Don Severino Agricultural College, March, 1988. Adviser: Miss Lorna V. Alcones. This study was conducted to: (1) provide an in-depth analysis of the management and operations of a fish farming venture; (2) critically analyze the problem of the fish farm; (3) ascertain the cost and return of the farm; and (4) formulate and/or recommend viable solutions to the problem. Cayas Fish Farm in Naic, Cavite was selected as the place of study. Financial aspects and farm management procedures were considered as primary data. The profitability of the farm was determined by computing the net income and the computed return on investment with the cost of capital. Results showed that the return on investment was lower than the cost of capital. This implied that the farm was unable to generate reasonable earnings on the investments commit-ted to the business. The low return on investment was attributed to the poor management practices employed on the Farm, insufficient supply of fry, absence of definite production, harvesting and marketing programs and losses brought about by natural calamities. Though the owner decided to shift to poly-culture in 1982 to 1983, the net income generated was still far below the expected level and the system failed to generate reasonable earnings.
