Feed gain: now and in the future
The concept of feed profit is increasingly becoming a guiding element in pig farming. After all, your aim is to perform optimally, and thereby perform better than average. But what exactly does this number say? What is it compared to? How does the comparison come about and what can you do with it?
The term 'feed profit' creates a strange picture for people outside the sector. After all, it seems that this is only about food. Nothing is less true. The feed profit is calculated on the basis of the purchase and sale of all animals, the feed costs and increase. This is the first indicator of a company's performance and for banks it is an important number for calculating various ratios. In addition, there are short-term feed gains and long-term feed gains.
