Economical models of simulation in the calves fattening
Abstract
In the present work a simulation analysis for the calves fattening (males anf females) was achieved. In the simulation model were introduced as independent variables the purchase price of kilogram of weaned calf, sale price of carcass kilo of fattened calf, feed price and the conversion rate of feed, whereas the profit, gros margin and disposable income were considered as dependent variables. Females obtained higher profits, gross margins and disposable income than the males. The independent variables that had the highest contribution to the variance of dependent variables were the purchase and sale price of half, whereas the variable that had the lowest contribution to the variance was the conversion rate of feed.Downloads
