3 Learning Outcomes
ILO-2: Able to identify, analyse, evaluate and formulate a problem in the field of agricultural engineering and biosystems by means of scientific approaches and methods.
ILO-3: Able to solve problems related to environment and natural resources as well as production processes using engineering design and modelling approach.
4 Subject aims/Content
This course discusses the development of knowledge about the concept of analytical models and the application of techno-economics for planning, feasibility assessment and implementation in the field of agricultural engineering and agro-industry. The definition of techno-economics includes technology and management of raw material procurement, determination of process technology and capacity, operational management and analysis of economic and financial feasibility. Evaluation of long-term agricultural projects (capitalized cost).
1. Introduction of techno-economics 2. Concept of techno-economics 3. production cost
4. Money math
5. The concept of the value of money against time changes 6. Equivalence for various cash flows
7. Investment evaluation
8. Analysis of operational costs for pre-harvest and post-harvest machines 9. Engine replacement analysis
10. Production optimization 5 Teaching methods
1. Group discussion 2. Project-based learning 6 Assessment Methods
A. Evaluation System for Students
The evaluation system carried out on the implementation of the techno-economics course aims to determine the absorption of knowledge that has been obtained by students which is carried out by conducting several evaluation methods., i.e.:
● Exams consist of Midterm exam and Final Exam
● Tasks - Project-based learning The scoring system used is:
● Exams consist of Midterm exam (20%) and Final Exam (20%)
● Tasks (60%)
B. Evaluation System for Lecturers
In addition to knowing the level of absorption of student knowledge, evaluation is also carried out on lecturers for the entire series of learning activities provided. The evaluation was carried out by distributing questionnaires to student participants at the end of the exam. The contents of the questionnaire cover various aspects of learning activities which are described as follows:
● Lecture materials
● Learning method
● Mastery of the material by the lecturer
● Lecture facilities
● Assignments (materials, time and assistance)
● Comments and suggestions
