Question

A b roiler complex conducted the yearly strain test with three nutrient density feeds. The teed mill made the low density feed ($246) and high density feed ($255) in crumbles and blended diets to create the moderate density diet.

Answer 1

We will use below formulas to calculate values

A: Feed cost ($) / ton

B. Feed cost ($)/ Lb. = (Feed cost ($) / ton)/ 2000 considering 1 ton = 2000 Lb.

C. Feed cost ($)/ Lb. live bird = Feed cost ($)/ Lb. * FCR

D. Feed cost ($)/ Lb. total breast = (Feed cost ($)/ Lb. live bird) / BM%

E. Feed cost ($)/ Lb. total WOG =( Feed cost ($)/ Lb. live bird)/ WOG%

F. Income over feed cost/ Lb. breast (fillets and tenders) = Breast value ($) - (Feed cost ($)/ Lb. total breast)

	Strain A			Strain B
	Low	Moderate	High	Low	Moderate	High
A	246	(246+255)/2=250.5	255	246	(246+255)/2=250.5	255
B	246/2000=0.1230	250.5/2000=0.1253	255/2000=0.1275	246/2000=0.1230	250.5/2000=0.1253	255/2000=0.1275
C	0.1230*1.701 = 0.2092	0.1253*1.681=0.2105	0.1275*1.693=0.2159	0.1230*1.731=0.2129	0.1253*1.720=0.2155	0.1275*1.679=0.2141
D	0.2092/22.95% = 0.9116	0.2105/22.98%=0.9162	0.2159/23.15%=0.9324	0.2129/23.00=0.9257	0.2155/22.90%=0.9411	0.2141/23.35%=0.9168
E	0.2092/74.85% = 0.2795	0.2105/74.90%=0.2810	0.2159/74.32% = 0.2905	0.2129/75.81%=0.2808	0.2155/75.12%=0.2869	0.2141/75.90%=0.2821
F	1.3 - 0.9116 = 0.3884	1.3 - 0.9162 = 0.3838	1.3 - 0.9324 = 0.3676	1.3 - 0.9257= 0.3743	1.3 - 0.9411 = 0.3589	1.3 - 0.9168 = 0.3832
