IS MEAT PRODUCTION AN ISSUE?

In 2012, around 304 million tonnes of meat were produced worldwide. For 2014, FAO forecasts an increase to 311.8 million tonnes.

PORK INDUSTRY EVOLUTION

FAMILIAR INDUSTRIAL

  • Pork is the most widely produced meat worldwide.
  • In many countries the number of pig farms is being reduced, while the herd size
  • f the remaining ones is increasing.

ADOPTION OF CAPITAL INTENSIVE SYSTEMS

Pig production has been evolving towards a progressive concentration in larger and more specialized and efficient production units

PORK SUPPLY CHAIN

The competition today is more between supply chains than individual firms.

slide-14
SLIDE 14

THE PSC MANAGEMENT

The chain manager now must make decisions on pig production agents considering the integration and coordination of the whole supply chain at different time horizons (Stadler, 2005).

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

Yield kg Cutting Patterns Demand kg The mayor difficulty is to balance the benefits of selling products from one part of the carcass when there are no demand from other parts or the carcass Carcass Demand

slide-19
SLIDE 19

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

  • OBJECTIVE FUNCTION is oriented to maximize the net profit.
  • The net profit is obtained through the difference between the incomes

from selling the products yielded by the cutting patterns, minus the

  • perational costs incurred. These operational costs involve inventory,

freezing costs, unsatisfied- demand penalties and labor costs to perform the cutting-patterns.

slide-20
SLIDE 20

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS

  • Bounds for carcasses to be processed. The number of carcasses to

process in each period needs to be bounded (upper and lower limits), given by the animal availability from suppliers according to different types of carcasses.

slide-21
SLIDE 21

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS

  • Cutting patterns balance. Carcasses are partitioned into sections and for

each section a different cutting pattern can be applied. This constraint ensures a balance between cutting patterns and the number

  • f carcasses processed. Equality is forced because the infeasibility to let

unprocessed raw material, due to perishability issues.

slide-22
SLIDE 22

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS

  • Cutting pattern yield. Different cutting patterns can be applied on the

carcass to make different products. A cutting pattern is therefore defined by a combination of a set of products and their respective yields. The following constraint calculates the total amount of product i, retrieved from all the cutting patterns applied in each period.

slide-23
SLIDE 23

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS It is recognized that the pork industry works with perishable products subject to spoilage. In order to extend the life of the product, it undergoes to a freezing process. Thereby, a product can be sold in two presentations, fresh and frozen. A product is considered fresh if it is sold within 4 days after

  • elaboration. On the other hand, frozen products can be kept this way for

almost 2 years. However, the profit of selling frozen products decays considerably.

  • Fresh and frozen balance. This constraint determines the amount of

product to be frozen and the ones to keep fresh to be sold in the next periods.

slide-24
SLIDE 24

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS

  • Fresh product to be sold. As mentioned, fresh products are not allowed

to be kept for more than 4 days. Constraint 7 calculates the total amount of fresh products that can be sold in a period t, but were produced in previous periods.

  • Frozen product to be sold. Fresh products need to stay at least 2 days

in the freezing tunnel, to be considered frozen. The following constraint balance the inventory of frozen products at each period.

slide-25
SLIDE 25

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS

  • Demand of frozen products. Ensures that the requested level of each

frozen product is addressed, allowing the existence of unsatisfied-demand in the case the raw materials are insufficient.

  • Demand of fresh products. Ensures that the requested level of each

fresh product is addressed, allowing the existence of unsatisfied-demand in the case the raw materials are insufficient.

slide-26

MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION

CONSTRAINTS

  • Labor capacity.
  • Wharehouse capacity for fresh products.
  • Wharehouse capacity for frozen products.
  • Freezing tunnel capacity.

OUTPUT

  • Moreover. The model gives the ability to ask ‘what if? questions such as
  • What is the effect on profit as further cutting patterns and extra products

become available?

OPTIMAL MARKETING OF PIGS

  • The fattened pig ready for slaughtering is the output from several productive

and reproductive biological processes .

Fattening farm

slide-31
SLIDE 31

OPTIMAL MARKETING OF PIGS

  • The fattening is the last biological process before the pig is marketed as a live

animal, and sent it to the slaughterhouse to be processed as a meat.

Fattening farm

slide-32
SLIDE 32

OPTIMAL MARKETING OF PIGS

  • As pigs reach marketable weights near the end of the finishing phase, a pork

producer must devise a marketing strategy to determine when to sell pigs, which and how many pigs to sell.

OPTIMAL MARKETING OF PIGS

  • The major complexity faced in this problem is in managing the biological

variance; owing to it, pigs reach optimal conditions for slaughter at different times of the fattening period.

CONCLUSIONS

  • Adoption of OR methods in the PSC progress slowly like in other industries of

the primary sector. It may benefit of the development of user-friendly DSSs in a narrow collaboration with the industry.

  • Traditionally, judgement based on experience had been the basis for the

production planning. However recent changes have driven to a more complex business planning enviroment, and thereby made the development of more formal planning methos necessary.

  • The new competitive strategy in pig farming is no longer based on individual

farms units, but rather integrated into a supply chain.

  • Analitical

tools has the potential to increase profits through a better undertanding and new insights for their marketing strategy and production

  • peration.
