Grade 11 Farm Enterprise Break-Even Activity

Revision activities / Agriculture study practice

Learning focus: Agricultural Technologies and Entrepreneurship. This original Grade 11 Agriculture exercise gives you a task, a suggested response and a follow-up challenge. It is classroom practice, not an official assessment paper.

Understand the idea

A small farm enterprise must distinguish sales revenue, variable costs and fixed costs. Break-even is the point at which total revenue equals total cost.

Try the activity

A seedling project has fixed costs of KSh 2,000. Each seedling costs KSh 10 to produce and sells for KSh 30. Find the break-even number sold.

Attempt your response before opening the guidance. Show the steps, textual evidence or reasons that support your answer; a final answer alone may hide a misunderstanding.

Show suggested answer and reasoning

Contribution per seedling is 30 − 10 = KSh 20. Break-even sales are 2,000 ÷ 20 = 100 seedlings. This assumes every unit produced is sold at the stated price and that the stated costs are complete.

Follow-up challenge

Calculate the result if 10 seedlings are lost before sale. Discuss packaging, transport and unsold stock before recommending whether to expand.

Review your work

  • Did you answer the question actually asked?
  • Can you explain the method or evidence in your own words?
  • What would you change if one condition in the task changed?

Use the suggested response to identify one correction, then attempt the task again without copying it. For an open-ended question, other well-supported answers may be reasonable. Ask your teacher to check interpretations or language forms where needed.
