The profitability of fattening in May calculated by specialists was as follows.
According to the components adopted at that time, in the model based on purchased grains, breeders lost nearly PLN 170 per animal, while the loss generated in fattening based on their own grains reached nearly PLN 250. According to the latest calculations, the situation of breeders has improved only slightly.
According to the June calculation, the loss generated in fattening based on purchased cereals was slightly over PLN 140 (approx. PLN 25 less than in May), while in fattening based on their own cereals, breeders lost approximately PLN 210 per head (less than PLN 40 than before a month.
The difference was only slightly due to decreasing production costs (it was estimated that in June they were only PLN 10 per unit lower than a month ago), and the selling price of fattened pigs assumed by analysts had a slightly greater impact (PLN 7.20 compared to PLN 7.05 net per kilogram in May).
