An 18-page Kenya planning guide with a measured vertical-crop and meter-to-cash rehearsal, photo-led production workflow panels and an editable eight-tab model. Edition 2 separates invoices from cleared receipts, adds a configurable 0–6 month collection lag, opening cash, receivables and a funding-shortfall view, and corrects the operating-surplus/startup-capital separation. The fictional case is for arithmetic practice; verify local crop performance, installed cost, power use, buyer terms and tariff before investing.
