Overview (resum en anglès): By request of a private investor, wanting to put money in the beef sector, is ordered a
viability study of a feedlot cattle operation. The objective of the blueprint is to break down
and understand the feedlot industry. This study it¿s applied in a real case, with a real
operation on sale. This way, it's easier to have more precision at the time of summing up
the total amount of money that is need to be raised. The interested contacts a person
knowledgeable in the agri-food sector so that he can carry out research and develop an
analysis of the actual situation of the cattle industries. With this, take conclusions of the
viability of this kind of business based on cattle feed, and reify the project if the prospection
is profitable. It¿s important to remark that this project aims to analyze to what extent it is
profitable and if it is possible to start an operation of this magnitude. To make conclusions
independently of the results.
The investor is interested in a property with a total of 666 hectares, of which 255 hectares
are irrigated with five pivot sprinklers. The object of the investigation is to analyze the
physical environment and estimate the livestock capacity based on the availability of food
production that the farm permits to produce. Also, evaluate the investment needs in
machinery and analyze the finances of the farm in order to study the economical viability.
With all this background, I could travel to Wyoming and research more about the cattle
industry at the beginning of this year and also this actual summer. Having several meetings
with people from the beef sector gave me a lot of information that is valorous for this project.
This combined with my Agriculture Engineering formation it¿s a great help for the whole
study
