Despite the drop in the price of a bag of corn having impacted the decline in prices of concentrates by 1.60% compared to the 2nd quarter, supplementation costs in both systems continued to rise, with an average of R$ 46.80/ @ for the calf and R$ 32.31/@ for the complete cycle. This scenario was driven especially by the cost of mineral salt, which ...
