Análise econômica do impacto da venda da cama de frango na produção integrada de frangos de corte em diferentes sistemas de climatização

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the representativeness of the sale of poultry litter on the total income obtained in the production of broiler chickens reared in integration systems. Multiple case studies were used to determine if the compensation for removal of poultry from sheds is sufficient to generate economic profit in air-conditioned sheds by positive pressure and negative pressure. Financial data were collected for 18 months at each production cycle, in six properties located in the municipality of Prados - MG. Economic analyzes were performed based on the average of 21 production cycles for each air conditioning technology, making a total of 42 lots evaluated in the research. The results show that for both air conditioning technologies it was found a high dependence of the activity on the revenue generated by the sale of the poultry litter, without which the negative pressure system would generate only financial profit, while the positive pressure air conditioning would lead to activity to zero residue situations with partial coverage of depreciation. The results corroborate the propositions that the sale of poultry litter is essential for the economic success of producers that have joined the integration system.
