This document proposes a financial sustainability model for a horticulture department focused on vegetables and fruits. It outlines budgets, existing expenditures, production areas, anticipated costs and revenues, resources required, and intended outcomes. The department aims to proceed with quality work, increase production, minimize costs, and maximize available resources to become self-sustaining. Annual budgets would allocate 30% to future plans, 30% to contingencies, and 40% as profit. The anticipated annual revenue is over 1 crore 44 lakhs rupees after accounting for a 10% annual depreciation cost for machinery.
