You can use the compare_ownership_models capability. By providing your calculated cost per hectare and the contractor's rate, the capability will recommend whether to 'Keep Owned' or 'Switch to Outsourced'.

Yes, the calculate_area_impact capability allows you to input your total area in hectares and machine capacity to find the total cost for a specific project or harvest.
