Abstract
The results of this study on the loss of live poultry at various stages of delivery from the farm to the processing plant by road are given. A factor analysis of the reasons for the loss of livestock delivered from the farm to the processing plant was carried out. The dependencies of livestock losses on loading delays and the duration of the movement of the loaded poultry farm to the processing plant were established. Methodological recommendations for rationing the number of injuries observed during delivery were developed. The study of losses of live birds during delivery to the processing plant from the density of stocking in shipping boxes was carried out; the economic and mathematical model for optimizing the landing of live birds in shipping boxes was proposed. The calculation of the economic impact of the implementation of the results of the study is given.
Highlights
A substantial part of the total mortality of live birds, which affects the efficiency of the poultry processing company, without considering the losses from the spread of infections, occurs at the stage of poultry transportation by road from the farm to the processing plant
There are losses from downtime or idle operation of slaughter and processing lines, downtime of rolling stock, and a decrease in personnel productivity. This justifies the relevance of the topic of this study, which is aimed at reducing losses in the cultivation and processing of live poultry from delays in its delivery to the processing plant
The purpose of this study is to develop effective logistics for the supply of live poultry to processing plants, as well as to save production costs in the technology of industrial poultry farming
Summary
A substantial part of the total mortality of live birds, which affects the efficiency of the poultry processing company, without considering the losses from the spread of infections, occurs at the stage of poultry transportation by road from the farm to the processing plant. There are losses from downtime or idle operation of slaughter and processing lines, downtime of rolling stock, and a decrease in personnel productivity. This justifies the relevance of the topic of this study, which is aimed at reducing losses in the cultivation and processing of live poultry from delays in its delivery to the processing plant. The aim of the study is achieved by the following tasks: - factor analysis of the reasons for the loss of poultry delivered from the farm to the processing plant; - establishing the dependence of the number of dead livestock on delays during loading, on the duration of movement of a loaded poultry truck to the processing plant; - rationing of livestock injuries observed during delivery; - development of an economic and mathematical model for optimizing the density of stocking live birds in shipping boxes; - calculation of the economic effect from the implementation of research results
