Farmed broiler production costs consist of direct costs and indirect costs in two parts. Direct costs, also known as variable costs, that is to say because there are advantages and disadvantages of production technology and the cost of change. Indirect costs, also known as constant costs, that regardless of how to produce results, we need to have fixed costs.
Direct costs include: ① feed costs. Broiler feed costs per unit of body weight = feed conversion ratio × feed prices. ② newborn child fees. Each newborn child newborn child fee = monovalent ÷ sell rate. Sale rate = ÷ sell only a few chickens into only a few young.
Indirect costs include: ① water, electricity, heat energy costs. Of each batch of broiler consumption of water and electricity throughout the breeding process, fuel, divided by the sale or sell only a few of the quotient of total body weight. ② drugs charges. The sum of each batch of broiler used drugs charges prevention, treatment, disinfection by, divided by the sale of only a few chickens or the total weight of the resulting quotient. ③ interest. Refers to fixed investment (long-term loans borrowed) and liquidity (short-term loans), one year to total interest paid during the year divided by the number of batches of chickens sold, divided by only a few or the total weight of each batch of the sale of the resulting quotient. ④ repairs. To keep the building intact and extracted repairs. Usually an annual depreciation of 5% to 10%. ⑤ depreciation. Reserved for the update buildings and equipment. Generally speaking, brick homes depreciation period of 15 years, seven years of wood, a simple five-year, appliance, machinery depreciation by 5 years. ⑥ labor. It refers to broiler production and management costs of labor and use, including the young, to temperature, water supply, feeding, vaccination, observe flocks, raise chickens, caged, cleaning, disinfection, transportation, shopping and so on. ⑦ taxes. Mainly broiler production as land, buildings, equipment, production and sales tax payable by. It should be calculated on a per kilogram body weight or per bird. ⑧ incidentals. In addition to the above direct costs, indirect costs, grouped together as the charges, including insurance premiums, reserves of gold, communications, transportation fees, handling fees.
1. Gross chicken costs Gross per kilogram of chicken cost = (FCR × average feed price) + chicks cost + [(pharmaceutical vaccine expenses + salaries + water + electricity expenses + depreciation other expenses) ÷ ÷ slaughter Number of slaughter weight (kg)] . Chicks chicks cost = price ÷ 1.02 ÷ survival slaughter weight (kg), which numbers 1.02 loss posted for the chicks. Most farmers in the actual depreciation and salaries will not included in the cost included in the profits. As average per 000 households into the homes, the cost of vaccines for chickens drugs about $ 300 per kilogram of drugs hair chicken vaccine costs about 0.17 yuan. Households with stove heat, electricity and water costs about 0.1 yuan. Other costs such as bedding, consumables and other income and chicken feed bags and offset income. Therefore, the cost to the farmers accounting Mao chicken simplified to: 1 kg gross chicks chicken feed conversion × average expected cost = price + chicks price ÷ 1.74 + 0.27. Wherein 1.74 to 95% survival rate, slaughter weight loss of 1.8 kg and Miaoji paste 1.02 product number. Therefore, the main indicators of the impact of the gross cost of chicken feed conversion, average price and the chicks feed prices. 2. FCR FCR also known as the feed conversion rate is the ratio of feed and slaughter weight of broiler consumption. FCR is closely related to the quality of feed, poor feed conversion feed high and low feed conversion good feed. FCR is also affected by seasonal and feeding and management conditions, lower feed conversion spring and autumn, winter and summer feed conversion, good feeding and management conditions were low feed conversion, feed conversion high feeding and management conditions are poor. Broiler varieties have a significant impact on feed conversion, fast growth, disease resistance and low broiler feed conversion, growth is slow, weak resistance chicken feed conversion is high. Assuming that the average price of 1.60 yuan feed / kg, the chicks price 2.70 USD / only, the cost price per kilogram of gross chicken = FCR × 1.60 + 2.70 ÷ 1.74 + 0.27 = FCR × 1.60 + 1.82. 3. Average feed price The average price of feed used all means broiler feed costs and the amount of feed ratio. If some kind of feed FCR under general feeding conditions for 2.0 Miaoji price of 2.70 USD / only, Mao chicken cost = 2.0 × material price +1.82. Many breeders in the choice of feed, in addition to considering whether the lowest feed costs, but also consider the growth rate. If growth is slow, it is also a relative increase in other costs. Therefore, before using a new brand of feed best look of the feed can reach the feed conversion ratio, or do some feeding trials. 4. chicks Prices If the average expected price of 1.60 USD / kg, feed conversion ratio of 2.0 gross chicken chicks cost = price ÷ 1.74 + 2.0 × 1.60 + 0.27 = chicks price ÷ 1.74 + 3.47. If the extension of broiler period to gain weight, feed costs and Miaoji cost increases. FCR larger and Miaoji costs, along with the weight gain, hair Miaoji cost per kilogram of chicken decreases. 5. Conclusion In summary, if the broiler slaughter weight 1.8 kg, 95% survival rate, 2.0 feed conversion, average feed price of 1.60 USD/ kg, the chicks price of 2.70 USD / only, the batch of chickens should be guaranteed price per kilogram of wool Chicken 5.02 USD or so. If other conditions remain unchanged, FCR 0.05 per change, costs will change 0.08 USD. Material changes in price 0.05 USD per / dry gram, the cost price will be 0.10 USD change. Chicks price 0.50 USD per change / only, the cost will change 0.29 USD.
