Annualizing costs for multi-year crops #2

Closed qjhart closed 9 years ago

qjhart commented 9 years ago

Nathan brought up the point that the current methodology for calculating for costs for multi-year crops needs to be investigated. There are a few ways of doing that. We've discussed this as a method for annuallizing costs, but another method could just be to explicitly say the time over which the costs were incurred.

I'm starting to think that maybe what we need to do is assign costs a set of timeframes, like 'Planting', 'Annual','Harvest' and then maybe one like timestep, where we explicity add them by month ( for the non-regular harvest scheduing.)

This had been started to be included in the operations table.
