Abstract

The article deals with the issues of resource saving at pork production and its impact on the production cost. Based on this analysis, it is shown that pork production’s cost is influenced by not only by the unit cost of resources, but also to a greater extent by the resources’ cost. Calculations of the cost price and specific resource cost’s level, as well as resources’ change cost dependence were performed. The specific weight of resource costs for individual technological processes’ performance at the pork production is established. The most resource-intensive are the feed distributing and a microclimate technological process providing. It is suggested that for efficient pork production, it is necessary not only to reduce the unit cost of resources (feed, labor, electricity, fuel), but also to restrain the growth of resource prices in every possible way by state regulation. At the present stage of development at acute competition conditions, pork producers need primarily the cost of production reduction and competitive products’ manufactory’s ensuring to focus.
