This is the App page of ODMO program for Maximizing the revenue in pig farms.

In pig farming, optimal export time in the case of quickly changing market price is one of the key for success of farming. If export time is too early, the weights of pigs are not high to maximize the profit. On the other hand, if export time is too late, the cost of keeping and barn cost will increase while the pig weights increase insignificantly.
In this model, we follow a standard of pig farming in 24 weeks continually, and the data is given in the following table.

Week old	Food type	Food consumption (kg/day)	Average pig weight (kg)
1	X1	0.06	6.5
2	X1	0.25	7.5
3	X2	0.38	10
4	X2	0.55	13

The revenue equation is expressed as
Revenue of pig farming = [money from selling pigs] - [input cost] - [barn cost] - [technology cost] - [other cost] - [food cost]
