| Abstract | ||
| This Research was carried out in Tabas city of Iran in order to investigate the income, cost and profitability of allotment camel-breeding systems during the years 2015-2017.For this purpose, by selecting 28 allotments with an average of 105 camels in each allotment, the income and cost for each camel during the regular time period of each year (spring season) were completed and calculated by the users using a questionnaire. The type of applied research was the statistical population consisting of 12 camel herds and random sampling. The variables included income and cost factors of camel. Using engineering economics analysis, calculate PV income and PV cost for the years studied and then calculate net present value (NPV) and benefit-cost ratio (BCR) with software. Excel was calculated. The results showed that in all allotment the value of positive net present value and benefit-cost ratio was greater than one (BCR >1). The highest gross income in any of the allotments was related to the sale of live camels (male camel, 6-month-old camel, elimination camel), and the highest cost was related to the salaried wages and the purchase of forage. However, by calculating gross income costs, the profitability was determined, Therefore, it is suggested that due to the profitability of this profession the relevant agencies have a plan to expand this industry along with the tourism industry and since the forage in these habitats fails to meet the nutritional needs of the camels in the habitats, and the continuation of this situation will endanger vegetation, so caution must be exercised. | ||
