RE: Importance of production indicators in livestock systems

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Thanks a lot for sharing this interesting blog with us.

I have the impression that all the focus is set on the production, so that it could reach the demands. However, what about the demands? Are they reasonable relative to what we find in other countries? In other words, could it be that the production level are correct, but that the demands are simply too high?

Cheers!

Hello! thanks to you and the #StemSocial community for your support and interest in my blog.

Well, in relation to demand, as you mention in your question, it may indeed be the case that the demands are very high, since by nature, human beings are difficult to please, and we are rarely satisfied with what we get.

However, from the technical productive approach, the livestock systems of the Latin American tropics enjoy the privilege of having diverse climatic factors that can favor the production of biomass, but due to the lack of adequate management of the resources, it is not possible to surpass the production standards.

Thanks for coming back to me.

[...] human beings are difficult to please, and we are rarely satisfied with what we get.

This indeed looks like being a definition of human beings :D

So in fact, here the real problem is the management and not the demands by themselves. I imagine that many are aware of this (at least you are, as @amestyj probably), so that there is a chance to see a good evolution soon, isn't there?

I consider that the demands are part of the whole, that is to say, of the complexities of the system.
That is the idea my friend @lemouth, both my husband @amestyj and I, in the scenarios in which we share knowledge with producers or students, we try to show our vision about the field, it is a controversial issue, as it affects largely the economic factor, however we can improve production models in search of the survival of our species on the planet.
It is a pleasure to exchange ideas through this medium, happy day!

I fully agree. Only a global vision of the situation makes sense. I didn't know this was so controversial. After all, it sounds very logical to me. However, if logic would rule the world, the world would definitely be better today... ;)

Have a nice week-end !

PS: I didn't know about the connection between you and @amestyj (except for the topics of your posts) ^^

Greetings dear friend @lemouth, I have had some setbacks with my computer that I have already managed to fix. As you well mention the success of an agricultural production unit is determined by the management of the personnel in charge. Managing indicators is very important to know the productive efficiency of the agronomic practices that are applied and make timely decisions, to correct any problem.

The agricultural company is very complex, because they are managing natural resources, if you learn to manage them will be successful, because not everything is based on having the most production, the success lies in having greater productivity, that is to say that there is a better cost-economic, as well as ecological.

So long, have a great weekend-

I was actually not only referring to the management of the personal, but all kind of management (and your comment of course still applies with this in mind).

I did not initially imagined all the complexity underlying the agricultural context. It was thus really cool to have met you and your wife here on STEMsocial (and Hive).

Have a nice week-end!
