ertragreich

Ertragreich is a German adjective meaning yielding a high amount of yield, revenue, or returns. It describes something that produces substantial outputs or profits and can be used in various contexts, including agriculture, finance, and business performance. The term can also be used figuratively for periods or events that generated strong results.

Etymology and usage notes: Ertrag is the noun for yield or return, and the suffix -reich means rich in or full of. Therefore ertragreich literally means rich in yield. In agriculture it is used for crops or harvests that produce a large quantity. In economics and business it describes investments, projects, or fiscal periods with strong returns. It is related to, but not identical with, rentabel (profitable) or gewinnbringend (profit-generating); ertragreich emphasizes the amount of yield or return, which may still be affected by costs or risks.

Inflection and grammar: Ertragreich inflects like a normal adjective. Examples: ein ertragreiches Jahr, eine ertragreiche Ernte, ein ertragreicher Gewinn. The comparative form is ertragreicher, and the superlative is am ertragreichsten.

Related terms and contexts: Ertrag, Rendite, Gewinn, Ertragskraft, and rentabel are commonly used in finance and economics. In everyday language, ertragreich often conveys a clear sense of abundant output or high returns, whether in farming, investments, or business outcomes.
