Argentina for Everyone

The latest model feedlot

2012-01-19T12:21:00.000-08:00

For the business of feedlots, 2011 was not a year of plenty. The pens had an occupancy rate of 54%, reduced availability of calves was felt strongly there was a gap in the relationship wintering purchase / fat, in the opinion of many, complicated activity and lost money. But, as with every year that begins again renewed expectations.Therefore, to talk about this business, which contributes 50% of the task (that percentage climbs to over 65% if the home pens), the nation called entrepreneurs. The price of the calf, the value of corn, the activity expansion into marginal areas, export and, in particular, how has redefined the business since 2009 were among the topics discussed with James Doval, president of the Cámara Argentina de Feedlot (groups of 450 firms with an ability to enclose more than one million head) and responsible for Dovale SA (Tandil), Antonio Lopez Da Silva, Don Corral (Las Flores), Ignacio Rivarola, Protec SA (San Pedro) and Rodrigo Troncoso, manager of the entity that brings together the feedloteros.

- What balance do in 2011?

Da Silva: He lost money, plain and simple.

Troncoso:-On average, the losses were in the 100 pesos per animal.

Da Silva: 'We had a lagged value of the winter, from 20/40% compared to the fat. This led us to incorporate more kilos per person, with more time.

Doval: 'It was a bad year in terms of profitability. We bought the calf and ended up selling 12 pesos to 9.50 pesos.

Rivarola, 'We had a shortage of finance importantly, fewer calves on offer and retention, and a big difference in the winter.

Troncoso, 'Today the feedlot is in transition. Until late 2009, Argentina had business profitability in the sale. Wintering was bought 3 pesos per kilo, the cost per kilo produced in the pens was around 4 / 4, 5 pesos and finished animal was priced at 3.5 pesos per kilo live weight. Thus, he earned 0.5 cents for every kilo purchased and lost between 0.5 and $ 1 per kilo produced. Therefore, it is aimed to enclose short, 60/90 days, 100 kilos of production, and rotate the capital, sell and re-lock several times a year.

Doval: But from 2010, with the revaluation of the winter, the business happened to find profitability in the kilos produced. With wintering $ 12 a kilo and production costs of around $ 6.5 and the selling price of the finished animal at about $ 9, we have to lose $ 3 per kilo purchased and can earn $ 2.5 in per kilo produced. Thus, it is crucial to get as many kilos as possible in the pens, to offset or recover the cost of wintering calves purchased. The business is in producing as many kilos as possible.

According to the business in 2009 to buy and lock 1000 calves represented a capital of 600,000 pesos hacienda. Today, that number of animals represents 2.5 million pesos. Furthermore, feeding calves 1000 cost about 400,000 pesos in about 70 to 80 days, now, however, that figure is 1 million pesos, but with 120 days.

Doval: 'We have twice the cost and longer. Although production of meat animals left at least a 10% more meat.

- What variables sought to stay in business in 2012?

Doval: 'We sought new business and signed up to be more efficient in purchasing, evaluating all variables, quality of the calf, expenses, getting more kilos at lower costs.

Rivarola, 'also aims to make data management, analysis of incoming raw materials and quality control.

Troncoso:-In addition, since the camera come to train staff for both the tractor going up and delivers the food to the soldiers and health does.

Da Silva: 'This is a system where we can not stop and we must find a way to recoup their losses.Therefore, we categories such as steers to produce more kilos. In addition, we seek inputs that generate the best conversion, using plant extracts and essential oils.

- What is the price outlook for this year?

Doval: 'The expectation is that the gap (winter / fat) is not so great.

Rivarola: - Ideally have a regular price and the fat has a better value.

Da Silva: - We expect the gap to decrease and stay within 10 to 20 percent. Furthermore, we expect an increase in the heads of weaning, with a million more calves. That is, 8 to 10% more calves.

Fewer calves

According to data from SENASA, calves weaned in 2011 (Service 2009 and calving 2010) was 11,800,000. The consultant Victor Tonelli told La Nacion that the projection for 2012 is that this figure now stand at around 12.5 million heads. To recall, the average weaned calves between 2004 and 2008 was 14,750,000.

- What weight corn may have been in business?

Doval: - Corn and became more expensive, but we will not be decisive.

Da Silva: 'For us it has more impact the gap skinny / fat.

- Come closer the possibility of participating in the European quota for beef feedlot?

-Troncoso. If that goes, it is a business alternative for Argentina. Legally we are in the final stages.Today there are 45,000 tons without paying duty and with the participation of Uruguay, USA, New Zealand and Australia, but no quotas for countries, but importers who handle it.

Rivarola, 'This would give the calf to pay more, have more manpower and more added value.

- What expectations do they approve the use of growth promoters?

Doval: 'We hope this is resolved, since we are failing to produce a lot of kilos. I have already given to pigs is a good sign.

According to experts, this technology could increase from 12 to 15% production levels. Currently, Europe does not allow the treated meat, but for employers, while addressing this need, could advance authorization to use this technology to deal with more produce to markets that do not put

How the drug sought to prosecute Argentina

2012-01-01T17:10:00.000-08:00

Judicial officers of Jujuy and Salta were threatened with apparent mob posts, various actors warn of the alarming increase of drug trafficking in the Argentine Northwest

SALTA/JUJUY.- Federal Judge Carlos Olivera Pastor Jujuy can not banish from his mind the memory of that morning while working at the Court No. 2, in charge, found a decapitated head of a human in a box that had been left at the bottom of his car, parked in front of the building. "At the top of the box was a five-digit number, like a court file, and inside, the head of a person, not the bone, as told by some means, but an entire head, with hair, skin, teeth and eyes. It was dry, as if from some time ago, "says the magistrate, who relates this apparent threat to the causes related to drug trafficking and consumption. It was September 2011, only in the first half of the year, it took more than 400 drug related cases.

Pastor Olivera is not the only judicial officer allegedly threatened the region. The clerk of court criminal was beaten, and two federal judges and a prosecutor would have been intimidated Salta.None of them rule out the hypothesis that these events are linked to drug trafficking cases in their courts bearing, and some agreed to warn about the strengthening of international drug traffickers in the region.

"I do not want to mislead anyone that the government can win the battle against drugs," Anibal Fernandez acknowledged in 2005, according to leaked Wikileaks.

"Are we going to wait in Jujuy find a car with five people dead inside, as happens in Ciudad Juarez, or found dead hanging or killing a judge to begin to combat this scourge?" He told the NATION Judge Olivera Pastor.

The criminal case the same court secretary, Federico Zurueta was the one who uncovered the scandal of the threats. On October 19, 2011, he left his apartment in downtown San Salvador de Jujuy, two strangers at the door caught him and beat him brutally. Zurueta was two days after assuming control as Judge of Jujuy province.They left him lying on the floor with a clear message: "Do not assume as a judge." The official, 35, was hospitalized under observation for several days. Today, three months later, still taking office and proceeds to police custody.

"From what happened to me I'm guarded 24 hours. I can not leave my house if I have a policeman to accompany me. I can not live peacefully," he told the court clerk.

POSTS EXTORSIVE

When the fact becomes relevant Zurueta public came to light cases of other judges who had also been alleged serious threats, including federal Judge Olivera Pastor. "For me it's a clear message extortion and mafia-said-it is known that there are transnational drug trafficking organizations established in the North."

Leonardo Bavio, by the Federal Court No. 2 of Salta, was apparently threatening phone calls at the same time when, by his order, was demolished in the low Salta, a city neighborhood, a house that used a drug gang "from safehouse to collect and distribute drugs." In addition, this judge was responsible for processing Jorge Dubiel, a former commander of the Gendarmerie Nationale accused of involvement in a cocaine trafficking case in Salta.

Federal prosecutor Jose Villalba also underwent a violent episode, a man fell from a group with a machete in hand and would have tried to enter his office. The policeman who was at the door stopped him.

The most troubling, according to official figures show, is the department of Oran, 130 thousand inhabitants, located in northern Salta. According to the provincial Drug Enforcement Agency, 50% of drug seizures take place there, where news sources are confident that the "narcos stories are part of daily bread in the streets."

Three months ago, about 4000 people took to the streets to make a public demonstration to protest the drug trade. Alicia, who was present at the march, told local media with much concern: "Hopefully this is the first step towards ending those killing our young people. I am very worried that my kids are raised here." Claudio Ruiz, one of the organizers of the protest, accused the authorities: "Justice in Oran does not work: more and more drugs and the judge says it's just a moral issue. What really happens is that Oran is released , so that amount of drug circulating in our streets, "he told local media.

There, in Oran, Federal Judge Raul Reynoso said he shook off an attack because of his official car driver realized early on that he had placed four kilos of sugar in the gas tank. "They wanted the car to stop to kill me," he told local media. Reynoso was in the first half of this year almost 1250 dossiers for drug trafficking, including the seizure of 380 kilos of cocaine found in a van and arrested over a dozen gendarmes involved in trafficking and smuggling, according to the House Appeals of Salta.

The threats led to pronouncements of the Council of Magistrates and Judges Association and the National Justice officials , who expressed his "condemnation and solidarization". The security minister, Nilda Garre, ordered to "strengthen the security of staff and their families" and said that "the aggression suffered by these five officials represents an assault on the entire National Judiciary as a whole."
