Missing Component | Calculation method: |
|---|---|
Loss of milk production (I) | Number of Animals * Decrease in Daily Milk Yield (L) * Average Number of Days * Average Milk Price |
Body weight loss (II) | Number of Animals * Average Carcass Weight (Kg) * CA Decrease Rate (%) * Average Live Beef Price |
Carcass meat loss (III) | Number of Animals * Average Carcass (Kg) * CA Decrease Rate (%) * Average Carcass Price * Carcass Yield |
Spontaneous Abortion and Still Birth loss (IV) | Number of Animals * Spontaneous Abortion and Still Birth Rate (%) * Average Calf Price |
Loss of skin (V) | Number of Animals * Average Skin Price |
Total Loss | (I+II+III+IV+V) |
