INTRODUCTION
Background
In the present report, there will be analysis made on variables based on Farm Business Survey in UK. Thus, it will be analysed
through considering the expenses, labour hour, types of farm and revenue generated by them. There will be implication of statistical
tools such as on which researcher will measure descriptive, Two tailed t-test, ANOVA, correlation, regression and cluster. However,
these tests have been used by scholar to generate accurate outcomes which will be reliable in assistive in terms of creating an effective
knowledge. This survey will be studied on the basis of various research questions
Aim and Objectives
Aim: “To investigate the impact of farm type on business income, expenses, labour hour and size of the farm- A study on Farm
Business UK”
Objectives:
 To identify the changes in farm income due to various expenses involved in the business.
 To demonstrate the changes in farm types affects the farm size and area of land owned.

business

income.
Hypothesis (4):

Literature review
As introduced by Babbie, Wagner III and Zaino, (2018), there have been impacts of various variables on the farm’s income. It
includes several sources such as labour, size, land area as well as types of farm. It is required by the farmers in managing all the
elements as well as making adequate control over all the resources which will lead them in retaining the beneficiary success. Zhang,
and Li, (2018) stated that, impacts of such variations are mainly on the product in process and time for the completion of the job to be
done. Thus, the min factor is environment and labour force used in this process.
MAIN BODY
1. Summary of all variable
In accordance with analysing the summary of all the variables which has been used by the researchers there will be use of
Descriptive analysis (Wiedermann and Li, 2018). Thus, such analysis helps in identifying effective outcomes and summary of the data
set. Descriptive represent mean, mode, median and standard deviation of variables on which researchers will evaluate the summary of
all sources.
