Egg Producers (losing money) WE HAVE TOO MANY EGGS! Low Egg Prices Production Efficiency has never been better! MARKETING MANAGER PRODUCTION MANAGER
HIGH EGG PRICES AND PROFITS Come on girls…gimmie all you got! Production efficiency has never been better! We need more eggs! …OK! PRODUCTION MANAGER Goal: optimal production efficiency MARKETING MANAGER Goal: highest egg price Good Team Work Helps Optimize Profits
EXCESS EGGS = LOW EGG PRICES = NEGATIVE RETURNS Come on girls…gimmie all you got! Production has never been better! We have too many eggs! Losing Money ? PRODUCTION MANAGER Goal: optimal production efficiency MARKETING MANAGER Goal: highest egg price Poor Team Work Results in Excess Eggs and Negative Returns
PRODUCTION CONTROL = KEY TO PROFITS We have enough eggs! Okay girls. Take a breather, demand has been met Thank you MARKETING MANAGER Goal: Highest Egg Price PRODUCTION MANAGER New Goal: Optimal Profits Good Team Work = Reduced Egg Supply and Faster Return to Profits
Moral of the story…. Marketing and Production working together using new technology can improve production control and profits!

a ME/h/d Typical Feeding Program
Feeding based on intake saves money. Blindly making changes.
Profits = UB egg price – [ Back of UB – Prod. Cost – Process. Cost – Feed Cost ] Example: Production cost Cost of nest run into package product delivered Back Urner Berry
