In order to improve the effect of animal husbandry economic analysis, this article studies the animal husbandry economy based on system dynamics and studies how to define
The cost of feed accounts for greater than 80% of the total cost for the SF, TF and HTF but 60.1% for the BF. Clearly, the feed cost is the primary factor to affect the economic profit of pig husbandry. The main difference derives from the commercial feeds and soybean meal.
Our results indicate that large-scale livestock husbandry shows better economic performance but worse environmental consequences than the backyard and specialized farms. In other words, the larger production scale causes better economic benefits and worse environmental consequences.
In this study, the LCA, EME and ECA methods provide three different but complementary standpoints to compare pig production with different models. Our results indicate that large-scale livestock husbandry shows better economic performance but worse environmental consequences than the backyard and specialized farms.
Honeyman (1996) indicated that the incorporation of livestock into agricultural systems ensured a more sustainable agriculture. Tilman et al. (2002) also stated that pastured animals consume plants growing in a field, and plant growth is increased by the animal wastes deposited and recycled in the field.
Nature Food 3, 1052–1064 (2022) Cite this article Agricultural bioenergy utilization relies on crop and livestock production, favouring an integrated crop–livestock–bioenergy production model.
Livestock husbandry in China is rapidly changing in structure from traditional backyard rearing toward large-scale and intensive production. In this study, a joint use of life cycle assessment, emergy evaluation and economic analysis provides different but complementary standpoints for comparison of four typical pig production models.
