Optimizing production in small-scale beef cattle farm
Original language description
The focus of our contribution is optimization of planning and breeding in a small-scale beef cattle farm in a long-term horizon. We present a vast linear programming model capturing all categories of cattle. The overall balance of cattle categories is influenced in a positive sense by the reproduction cycle and purchasing of heavily pregnant heifers in a monthly sense. The decrease in the overall state of the herd is caused by herd turnover and sales in the meat sector. Our intention is to design a mathematical model and find through linear programming such balance that gen-erates the maximum and stable profit in a long-term horizon. The constraints are determined by the availability of space in cattle stables and herd turnover. We max-imize the profit over sales of meat bulls and meat cows. The life cycle of all catego-ries is captured by a tree graph. On its basis, the mathematical model of linear opti-mization is presented in detail. We optimize according to various scenarios of pur-chases and sal
