The ECONOMIC ANALYSIS unit facilitates informed decision making by providing research-based strategic advice. It does economic and statistical analyses in providing the ARC and potential clients with advise in conducting research, development and technology dissemination projects, and in determining the impact of these initiatives.

The economic group uses economic and social analytical techniques to provide strategic advice and economic intelligence in determining investment opportunities; describes the forces that drive economic development globally in quarterly Economic Outlook reports and their impacts on the South African agricultural sector; determines the viability of envisaged research or development initiatives and establishes the performance of ongoing or completed interventions through Impact Assessment studies.
