Mode of analyzing bio-economic efficiency of commercial dairy farms as a function of calving concentration at the beginning of the rainy season. IV. A case study
Abstract
The objective of the work was to bring about a case study represented by a dairy farm unit (UPL) with a calving concentration pattern at beginning of the rainy season within 69 and 79 %, in relation to other units with less calving concentration at that time. The institutionalized information of every UPL for the 2001-2006 quinquennium was considered. Several indexes like production/cow/day, and production per hectare/year per work unit (UT)/year were calculated. The results of the economic behavior of calving patterns were calculated from the certificates of expenses and incomes of the company and the profitability on the total bulk incomes per year the incomes-expenses (net incomes), and cost per kg of milk. The unit 8, of best productive behavior of pattern III, with a calving concentration at the beginning of the rainy season of 69-79 % was selected. It was demonstrated the obvious superiority in productive results in relation to pattern I and II averages. In relation to that, it had a difference of more than 100 000 kg of milk per year and more than 1000 kg per hectare, with very inferior costs per kg of milk. According to the analysis carried out for the assessed phase, the results actually validate the favorable effect of calving concentration at the beginning of the rainy season on the indexes of productive and financial efficiency of the units.
