Summary:
Minimization of production costs requires the integration of several factors. These include nutrition, housing configuration, and growing environment. The temperature at which optimum feed utilization occurs may not be the economically optimum temperature. The economically optimum temperature of a confinement building is determined by calculating profit potentials at various temperatures.
