“System Level Economic Analysis of Swine Diet Modifications”
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experimental data from low nitrogen and phosphorus diets (Carter et al, 1999, 2000, 2003) are being used to validate and/or modify the NRC swine growth model. A profit maximizing daily growth model that considers feed costs, excretion, waste management costs, and length of feeding period is being developed.

متن کاملOptimal Cropping Pattern Modifications with the Aim of Environmental-Economic Decision Making Under Uncertainty
Sustainability in agricultural is determined by aspects like economy, society and environment. Multi-objective programming (MOP) model has been a widely used tool for studying and analyzing the sustainability of agricultural system. However, optimization models in most applications are forced to use data which is uncertain. Recently, robust optimization has been used as an optimization model th...
متن کاملA systems approach to the policy-level risk assessment of exotic animal diseases: network model and application to classical swine fever.
Exotic animal diseases (EADs) are characterized by their capacity to spread global distances, causing impacts on animal health and welfare with significant economic consequences. We offer a critique of current import risk analysis approaches employed in the EAD field, focusing on their capacity to assess complex systems at a policy level. To address the shortcomings identified, we propose a nov...
متن کاملEconomic Consequences of Biological Variation: the Case of Mycoplasma in Swine Herds
We present an economic decision support model, based on a Bayesian network, for Mycoplasma infection in slaughter swine production. The model describes the various risk factors for Mycoplasma infection and their interactions. This leads to a stochastic determination of the consequences of productivity factors, and this again results in stochastic economic consequences when changing the risk fac...
