INVESTMENT, ENERGY, AND LABOR TRADEOFFS IN SWINE PRODUCTION
2018
Kliebenstein, James B. | McWilliams, Stephen A.
This study evaluates how energy and labor costs, and investment levels affect the investment feasibility of pasture, partial confinement, and total confinement swine production facilities. The pasture system provided the lowest present value of investment, labor, and energy costs for most energy-labor cost combinations studied. It was followed by partial confinement and then total confinement. System break-even feed efficiencies and labor costs were also calculated.
