The effect of production efficiency on economic results in pig breeding

Original language description

Agricultural enterprises specializing in breeding pigs in the Czech Republic are characterized by relatively low profitability compared with other types of farming. Nevertheless, the economic results vary depending on production efficiency of pig breeding. The question is how much considerable are the differences. Thus, the aim of the paper is to evaluate differences of economic outcomes in pig breeding, depending on the production efficiency of sows and fattening pigs. The analysis is based on the sample survey of production costs and revenues which has been carried out annually by Institute of Agricultural Economics and Information. The results indicate that mean profitability of pig farming is negative in all intervals of production efficiency, buta smaller loss is realized in case of higher performance of fattening pigs and sows. The cost of a slaughter pigs are highly dependent on the work productivity in breeding sows (number of weaned piglets and their health) as well as on the
