For those who use a growth model, there are additional options to view intake related information such as total cost to gain and projected weight. The growth model takes more factors into consideration in order to display more accurate, real-time performance data to help producers make predictions and in turn, more informed decisions.

       e.   Total Cost/Gain: All costs associated per one pound of gain. This includes daily                           cost/gain, to-date cost/gain and breakeven per group only.

       f.   Total Feed Cost/Gain: Total feed cost associated per one pound of gain displayed per                group.

The analytics highlighted above are not only focusing on feed costs, but also all other costs associated with a group. The combination of these analytics gives you and your trusted advisors a bigger picture of your business expenses. In terms of feed costs, these analytics can help you pinpoint where and when extra feed was used, therefore giving more insight on how feed costs might have jumped during a certain timeframe. Other costs such as processing, bedding, etc. are also captured with whole group total cost data. To view more analytics, click on the articles below.
