Eestis on avamaa maasikakasvatuse kasvupind viimastel aastatel vähenenud ning
kodumine toodang ei kata täielikult tarbijate nõudlust, mistõttu sõltub Eesti suurel määral
imporditud maasikatest. Samal ajal on huvi kodumaise maasika vastu jätkuvalt suur, kuid
puuduvad terviklikud majandusanalüüsid, mis annaksid ülevaate avamaa
maasikakasvatuse tasuvusest, tootmiskuludest ja võimalikust tulukusest, eriti alustava
ettevõtja vaatenurgast. Käesoleva bakalaureusetöö eesmärk oli välja selgitada avamaa
maasikakasvatuse kattetulu ja tasuvus väikesemahulise tootmise näitel. Töös kasutati
kattetulu arvestust ja tasuvusanalüüsi ühe hektari suuruse maasikaistanduse näitel.
Analüüs põhines statistilistel andmetel, erialakirjandusel, hinnapakkumistel ning tootjaga
läbi viidud konsultatsioonidel. Uuringu tulemused näitasid, et rajamisaastal moodustasid
suurima osa kuludest istutusmaterjal, kilemultš ja tilkkastmissüsteem, samas kui
saagiaastal kujunes peamiseks kululiigiks tööjõukulu, eelkõige saagikoristus. Kõrgeim
saagikus saavutati teisel saagiaastal. Kattetulu analüüs näitas, et tootmine suudab katta
otsesed muutuvkulud kõigil toomisaastatel. Tasuvusanalüüsist selgus, et tööjõukulud,
eelkõige saagikoristus, mõjutavad tootmise majanduslikku tulemust. Töö tulemusi saab
kasutada avamaa maasikakasvatuse tootmise planeerimisel ning edasistes uuringutes
võiks võrrelda avamaa ja tunnelkasvatuse tasuvust Eesti tingimustes.
In Estonia, the area under open-field strawberry cultivation has declined in recent years, and domestic production fails to fully meet consumer demand; as a result, Estonia is heavily reliant on imported strawberries. At the same time, interest in domestic strawberries continues to be considerable, but there is a lack of comprehensive economic analyses that would provide an overview of the profitability, production costs, and potential returns of open-field strawberry cultivation, particularly from the perspective of a starting entrepreneur. The aim of this bachelor’s thesis was to determine the gross margin and profitability of open-field strawberry cultivation, using small-scale production as an example. The study used gross margin calculations and a cost-benefit analysis based on a one-hectare strawberry plantation. The analysis was based on statistical data, specialist literature, quotations, and consultations with the producer. The results of the study showed that, in the year of establishment, the majority of costs was accounted for by planting material, plastic mulch, and the drip irrigation system, whereas in the harvest year, labour costs – particularly those associated with harvesting – became the primary cost category. The highest yield was achieved in the second harvest year. The gross margin analysis showed that production is able to cover direct variable costs in all production years. The cost-benefit analysis revealed that labour costs, particularly those associated with harvesting, have an impact on the economic performance of production. The results of this study can be used to plan open-field strawberry production, and future research could compare the profitability of open-field and tunnel cultivation in Estonian conditions.
