Your floor price in twelve lines, before you sell your batch
A 10-page PDF calculator. It gives the six numbers to collect, the full calculation line by line with an example, and 3 sheets to fill in by pen. You download it straight after payment.
Price: 1,000 FCFA.
This is for you if…
- a buyer offers you a price and you cannot tell whether it loses you money;
- you want to compare two quotes for chicks or feed before you order;
- you want a simple calculation, with no spreadsheet and no phone.
This is not for you if…
- you want a full farming manual. This document does one thing, the calculation.
- you want veterinary advice. It contains none.
The problem
Feed is often counted on the surviving birds only. A bird that dies on day 30 has still eaten for thirty days. The batch looks cheaper than it is, and the selling price ends up too low.
How the calculator works
- You collect six numbers, the chick price, the bag price, the feed conversion, the selling weight, the price per kilo and the mortality.
- You run them through twelve lines of maths, always in the same order, up to the floor price.
- Three sheets keep the record, so you can redo the calculation for every batch.
What's inside
- Why this calculation, and what this document is not (pages 3 and 4)
- The calculation line by line, the two traps on line 1, and a dated example (pages 5 to 7)
- The 3 sheets for daily mortality, weighing and feed, and the batch review (pages 8 to 10)
Who made this calculator
Velora Press, a publisher of practical guides. Worked figures are dated examples in naira, there to show the method. You replace them with your own prices.
