Fig. 1. Break-even price lines for peanut-cotton (PN-CT and PN-CT-CT) and peanut-corn rotations (PN-CR and PN-CR-CR). The straight lines in each graph represent break-even price combinations. These are points at which returns from the PN monoculture are equal to the returns from a given rotation. The area under the break-even price line represents points where the PN monoculture has a higher economic return than the corresponding peanut rotation. The opposite is true above the break-even line, where the peanut rotation has a higher return than the PN monoculture.
