All categories of animals are expected to be fed entirely with purchased feed.
Revenues and costs, requiredfeed and number of workersin the sheep farm are expertly determined. The prices of material costs and production are current as of July, 2022. The sheep farm will be specialized in the production of male and female breeding animals and of heavy - meat lambs of the Ile de France breed.
It was found that with the parameters set in the analysis, raising 250 ewes of the Ile de France breed at one insemination per yeariseconomicallyeffective.
