Comment:
With regard to the article that has presented us, allow me to congratulate him for the managed knowledge and at the same time well transmitted, on the other hand, I will take the audacity of making several comments that I wait they are taken into account for their discussion and analysis on the same topic, beginning with:
Management in the swinish exploitations:
The management is not but that to direct all the relating activities to a company and in the case peculiar of companies where the machine that produces the revenues is a biological machine, that is to say that grows, he/she reproduces, it falls and it produces agricultural products that it is the same thing to say to produce milk, meat, eggs, etc., in the case of the swinish exploitations the agricultural product is the meat in channel which its measure unit is the kilogram, reason why I am in total agreement with that that you at the beginning have outlined in reference to that what should not be lost of view is the production of kilograms of pig meat and that therefore the “Management what should propitiate is the necessary conditions so that the biological act is shown in all its potentiality and with the biggest possible speed.”
The swinish registrations:
In this point it is also necessary to make a comment about them, since the same ones vary according to the necessities of each producer and to the objectives each who he/she thinks about or that they want to reach, causing serious deviations in their analyses and their comparison with other data given by other producers.
Lucratividad of the business:
I would prefer to call it since Perpetuación of the Gain of the swinish business if what is wanted is alone to make money and more money would rot desvirtuarse the same essence of the production of the earth and to fall in very harmful bad habits for the swinish producers that could arrive to make until illegal. On the other hand when we speak of perpetuación of the gain we refer to the sustentabilidad and sostenibilidad of the business. When we speak of these last two terms we don't mean that utility doesn't take place but an utility satisfactory point for the managers (person that undertakes a business with the possibility of to fail or to guess right), for the employees and for the same country a satisfactory profitability for the company would represent a rent since for the state and for ende for its community that would be reflected it in works of useful infrastructures for all them.
Administrative theory of systems:
This theory outlines that the production of a good is as a biological system in which some entrances exist, a prosecution of those entrances exists with the incorporation from some elements to the same one and the waste of other and that at the same time an exits that are formed by those waste non needful and other waste that could be incorporate exist but they were not it due to flaws in the systems, seen graphically it would be in the following way:
This expressed theory that all this inside a system and that the same one is in other becoming infinite and unlikely of controlling. On the other hand, the equation of utility although very specific it distorts to the system placing the revenues where the exits and the expenditures go where the entrances go therefore to know with accuracy the acting of a convenient serious swinish agricultural company to detect these factors and to control them to the possible maximum.
In other words in my country Venezuela the swinish exploitations are divided in:
Gestation (that should be studied separated as a system but inside the total system)
Maternity (Sub-system)
Wean (Sub-system)
Get up (Sub-system)
Put on weight (Sub-system)
To continue with my modest analysis it is necessary to remember that the productive process is always schematized of one he/she would tweet as if was a continuous process, as I have just represented previously it, when in fact it is a process where all these systems are overlapped that is to say they don't happen at different time but at the same time, when a female this gestating exists several that are also in the same state but with significant variations of time, but at the same time other females exist giving birth to, other entering in zeal and others in process of growth, that which hinders the estimate of their costs and exact analysis, like I said a growth of two animals that you/they were born the same week previously but with a difference of 7 days its increment of weight, its food conversion could be highly significant and decisive in the utility, profitability, determination of the production costs and the possible benefits of the company. In conclusion and for not boring them more in this point all that is made to close the breaches of differences, product of the same biology and the alive beings' physiology they would be good to determine the real utility of a swinish exploitation.
The planning in the swinish exploitations:
In my professional practice me opposing that not alone the small and medium producers don't plan and when they make it they plan bad, but rather this also happens at level of big producing and the discoveries are also surprising, such as those of the sale of the pigs where this it is not the problem but the inadequacy of the same one to supply to the market reaching the conclusion that the problem is not the sale of the agricultural product (pig meat in channel), at slaughterhouse level, if he/she doesn't buy it of this. On the other hand, most of producers that you/they request advice already possess facilities in different states of conditions from good, regular and bad. At the same time he/she has been that the planning becomes first taking into account the not taken advantage of capacity of the females that you/they should come out in jealousies without noticing that first should be calculated the potential of exploitation of the corrals of it puts on weight and leaving from here to determine how many corrals of he/she gets up they can be used, how many paritorios they are needed weekly, how many strands are needed them to leave weekly in zeal and how many of these we would owe preñar, this is necessary when swinish exploitations are gotten that are sub used, in those that are on used it is but easy the control. On the other hand most of sub producers use or they have in idleness one of the FACTORS OF PRODUCTION IMPORTANT MA THAT it is THE EARTH (Factors of Production = Earth, Capital and Work). The production means are all those instruments, teams, machineries, implementos, vehicles, infrastructures, necessary etc. for the maximum uses of these production factors. In consequence when not being using this production factor appropriately, as it is it the earth and besides this to be the restrictive factor, an infinity is presented of alternative so that the producer expands or increase its revenues through the increase of the I number of kilograms and not through the increase of the market value that that faces are to limit but the consumption of the pig meat even excluding great number of people that you/they don't have the purchasing power and giving passes to other sources of animal but accessible protein for these people and also breaking since to the small and medium producer in this case if it would be problematic the placement of its product in the market and the inflationary effect would result in that their entrances filled out and for ende their exits would have the same gain margin that at the beginning falling in an I circulate vicious and also without control.
Other economic studies that develop the theory of the FALLING COSTS that is not but that “the units taken place in a company arrive to a point where to increase an unit but the utilities don't increase but rather it diminishes, this indicates us that a swinish exploitation for the fact of taking place but kilograms of meat won't increase their utilities if just the opposite he/she is not able to but well to be diminishing their utility.
Conclusion:
In general terms the Management is not enough to take to good port a swinish exploitation but it is necessary a GOOD MANAGEMENT, with all the components that she can manage such as a good cost accounting adapted biological beings with its very particular characteristics, a good organization for the production, a strategic planning, practices it of this planning, the handling of the new technologies, good financial economic studies, exact knowledge of the market and for I finish it is the motivation and human capacity.
He/she says goodbye to you:
