Stochastic analysis of profitability of the pig breeding process - case study
Original language description
The main goal of this contribution is to find and apply an efficient simulation model of pig breeding at a particular company in order to improve its economic results. The main inputs for the model were statistical distributions for number of inseminations and number of weaned piglets. In addition we have used conditional probability distributions for particular animal among each litter. Costs at particular parts of the breeding process were used as the additional simulation inputs, together with numberof parities, length of farrowing interval, number of weaned piglets depending on a parity number, lactation length, and the gestation length of sows. Next inputs were price of produced piglets, price of insemination doses etc. The empirical curve of sowprofitability depending on the number of parities, which can help to decide about the culling of sows from the herd, was also determined in the research. The obtained results and recommendations are discussed at the end of the paper.
