The thesis concems about investments and their effectiveness. The goal of the thesis is to find out whether it is worth to make the investment. The project deals with the reconstruction of a public cultural house in which three new apartments are build into. Cost of reconstruction, rental rates will be quantified and then mortage loan will be determined. This information wil be used for further calculations and the result will be an evaluation of the investment. The result of this work is to determine if the investment is really effective.

The aim of the research: To define the effect of the feeding of dairy cows roughage rations on their productivity, physiological state and economical parameters. The tasks of the research – to define the effect of feeding technologies on: forage intake; milk production and quality; microbiological and biochemical parameters of the rumen; forage OM digestibility in vitro; biochemical parameters of blood; economical effect. Novelty of the research: The effect of different feeding technologies – when forages were given as separate components and as the mixture of all components-on dairy cows’ productivity, physiological state and economical parameters has been studied complexically for the first time. Practical importance of the research: The results of the research led to the conclusion that it seems economically purposeful to feed dairy cows roughage mixtures, which made 83.44% and 85.63 % of all daily ration while preparing and sharing them out by a mixer-divider ,,OptiMix™“, as this feeding technology serves to decrease feeding expenditure and to increase milk production.

The aim of this work is to define the investment and it’s efficiency. Especially it’s focused on determination if is the investment worth to do. The work is describing a reconstruction of a house, where the final stage is to split this house into two divided flats. Investment is based to make two rentable flats. The designed reconstruction is shown and all of it’s costs. There are shown operating costs and renting prices too. All of those information are summarized for following calculations. Also, the summary will be calculated according to indexes of economical efficiency. The result of this work is to determine if the investment is really effective.

In this work were investigated the spatial variability existent on the soil attributes utilized for soil fertility evaluation and its grade of participation on the yield crop variability. An experiment was conducted over five years (2000 to 2005) in an area of 57 ha in the municipality of Palmeira das Missões in a Latossolo Vermelho distrófico típico (EMBRAPA, 1999). Geopositioned soil samples were collected in May 2002, with a regular grid of 100x100 meters and at a depth of 0 to 10 cm. Yield data of soybean 2000/01, corn 2001/02, wheat 2002, soybean 2002/03, wheat 2003, soybean 2003/04 and corn 2004/05 were analyzed. The yield data was collected with a machine equipped with a system that take and register georeferenced data. Yield averages for each soil sample point were calculated, using yield data collected at a radius of 30 meters around the point. The yield and soil data were analyzed using the Pearson correlation Matrix. Average quadratic polynomial equations were calculated for the yields of soybean 2001/02 and 2003/03, where the nutrient pH, Organic Mater (OM), Phosphorus (P) and yield average were divided into five categories: very low (VL), low (L), mean (M), high (H) and very high (VH). For P was used categories proposed by Schlindwein (2003), for pH and OM are used categories adapted from Comissão (2004). Maximum efficiency technical (MET) and maximum economical efficiency (MEE)considering 90% of relative yield are calculated using the adjusted equations. A small correlation was found between the soil chemical attributes and the yield productivity. A negative correlation from 0,25 to 0,46 was found between the clay texture and corn yield 2005 and soybean yield 2004 respectively. The average soybean yield response to soil attributes curves shows the values of maximum technical efficiency (MTE) of the attributes in the soil. The MTE for P, pH and OM are 14,4 mg dm-3; 5.9 and 4.1%, respectively. Higher values of MTE can reduce the crop yield. The MEE for P, pH and OM are 4,4 mg dm -3; 5.5 e 3.2%, respectively. / Neste trabalho foi investigada a variabilidade espacial existente nos atributos do solo utilizados na avaliação da fertilidade dos solos, bem como seu grau de participação na variabilidade da produtividade das culturas. Foi conduzido um experimento por 5 anos (2000 a 2005) em uma área comercial de 57 ha no município de Palmeira das Missões em um Latossolo Vermelho distrófico típico (EMBRAPA, 1999). Em maio de 2002 foram coletadas amostras de solo georeferenciadas em malha regular de 100 x 100 metros a uma profundidade de 0 a 10 cm. As safras de soja 2000/01, milho 2001/02, soja 2002/03, trigo 2003, soja 2003/04 e milho 2004/05 foram analisadas. Os dados de produtividade foram coletados com uma colhedoura com sistema de tomada e registro de informações georeferenciadas. Para cada ponto de coleta de solo foi calculada uma produtividade média utilizando-se os dados num raio de 30 m ao redor do ponto. Os dados de produtividade e solo foram analisadas pela matriz de correlação de Pearson. Para a cultura da soja nas safras de 2000/01 e 2002/03 foram determinadas equações polinomiais quadráticas médias, onde se determinou os valores médios do pH, matéria orgânica (MO), fósforo (P) e da produtividade para cinco classes: muito baixa (MB), baixa (B), média (M), alta (A) e muito alta (MA). Para o fósforo foram adotadas as classes propostas por Schlindwein, (2003) e para pH e MO usou-se classes adaptadas da Comissão (2004). Através das equações ajustadas foi calculado a máxima eficiêcia técnica (MET) e a máxima eficiencia economica MEE) que foi obtida considerando 90 % do rendimento relativo. Os atributos químicos do solo e a produtividade apresentaram baixas correlações. A argila apresentou correlação negativa de 0.25 a 0.46 com as produtividades de milho 2005 e soja 2004 respectivamente. Os valores de MET para P, pH e MO foram de 14,4 mg dm-3; 5,9 e 4,1%, respectivamente. Valores acima destes, podem incorrer em decréscimo de produtividade. A MEE para P, pH e MO foram de 4,4 mg dm-3; 5,5 e 3,2%, respectivamente.
