Guidelines for Estimating Swine Farrow-Finish Costs 2012 in Manitoba

Guidelines For Estimating Swine Farrow-Finish Costs Based On 500 Sows and 11,338 Pigs Sold Based on all feed being purchased Date: October, 2012 This publication is intended to provide a format and a set of guidelines for determining the cost of production for a swine enterprise. Adjustments will be necessary when applying these figures to your enterprise. The assumptions on which the costs are based are outlined in the supporting pages. These assumptions were arrived at using the breeding stock, management practices, and facilities seen in modern, well managed swine operations of comparable size in Manitoba. Productivity and performance assumptions are based on information collected by department specialists, feed companies and other organizations. Where individual herd productivity and performance levels differ from those listed adjustments will be required. Accurate, up to date, production and financial records are essential for the effective application of these guidelines to an individual operation. Without such information accurate cost of production projections cannot be determined. The guideline can be useful for comparison purposes. Comparison of costs at different levels of production can be made with other farms, the farm over a period of time or comparing the plan with the actual results at the end of the planning period. Disclaimer: This budget is only a guide and is not intended as an in depth study of the cost of production of this industry. Interpretation and utilization of this information is the responsibility of the user. If you require assistance with developing your individual budget, please contact your local MAFRI office.

Guidelines: Swine Farrow-Finish Costs 2 Farrow-Finish Pig Cost of Production The following farrow finish budget is based on the assumption all rations are purchased. The budget assumes a land investment cost based on 480 acres, which would be required for this size operation, with 460 acres rented out at $50 per acre. The budget includes an assumption that 1.75% of the market pigs are sold as lightweight pigs. It is assumed that when the lightweight pigs are sold, they will have a salvage value. Therefore, total marketings are reduced by only 1% to compensate for the lightweight pigs. The budget includes an assumption that this particular operation is "all-in, allout" by room. Space allocations for finishing pigs are in accordance with the Recommended Code of Practice for the Care and Handling of Farm Animals: Pigs. The rations illustrated in this budget are examples only. Individual farm conditions should be taken into account when formulating the diets. Producers need to know the feed intakes of their animals. Please consult with a nutritionist for diet information and suggestions. The Manitoba pork production industry profile is changing and this budget was specifically designed to address the need of producers who may want to analyze the cost of production for a new farrow to finish operation. Several companies are offering contracts with varying levels of guarantees. Producers need to accurately calculate their costs before they can properly make a decision.

Also note that an accurate feed conversion ratio for the grower-finisher enterprise is calculated by dividing 'Total Feed used per Year' by 'Total Gain per Year'; where 'Total Gain per Year' equals 'Total Hogs Sold' times 'Gain per Hog'. When calculated in this way, the feed conversion ratio includes feed lost through wastage and weight gain lost through death of pigs ² FOOTNOTE: Assume that "Avg.
