Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk of feedlot finishing of steers (22.8 months) and young steers (15.2 months), using or not a correlation between the random input variables (data collected from 2004 to 2010) in the simulation of the Net Present Value (NPV) financial indicator. The animals were fed a diet containing roughage:concentrate ratio of 60:40 for 34 and 143 days, respectively, until they had reached a predetermined slaughter weight of 430 kg. For the NPV simulation, Latin Hypercube s… Show more

“…Production cost estimates were performed following the methodology described by Pacheco et al (2014b). The items of costs (purchase of feeder cattle, roughage and concentrate feed, manual labor, health, depreciation and other operational expenses) and income (finished cattle) were associated with the performance characteristics obtained during the feeding period (initial and final weights, average daily weight gain, daily DM intake).…”
