摘要
畜牧生产企业在减少环境影响方面承担着越来越多的责任,因此,同时进行库存补充和减排投资决策已成为确保畜牧业可持续发展的关键。本研究首次探讨了在碳上限(CC)环境立法下,畜牧业企业在采购和饲养婴儿生长物(GIs)后,屠宰成熟生长物(GIs)的可食和不可食部分的最佳投资策略。通过融合经济和环境因素,本研究旨在揭示两个关键问题:(i) 计算农场遵守 CC 环境法规所需的适当投资水平;(ii) 评估投资决策对农场支出和排放水平的影响。为了解决这些问题,我们采用了一个综合了数学建模方法、经济评估和碳核算方法的全面分析框架。通过分析农场的减排投资与补给选择之间的相互作用,确定了具有成本效益的投资水平,使农场在满足碳上限义务的同时,保证最大的运营效率。这项研究的结果对试图通过严格的碳排放法律来实现自身发展的畜牧业企业具有重要影响。研究结果表明,在碳排放指南的上限较低时,为了保持业务的可行性,畜牧养殖场应优先投资于饲料排放的最小化和使用最先进的粪便处理方法。
Strategizing emissions reduction investment for a livestock production farm amid power demand pattern: A path to sustainable growth under the carbon cap environmental regulation
Livestock production companies come under increasing responsibility to reduce their environmental impact, and thereby, the simultaneous decision-making of inventory replenishment and emissions reduction investment has become essential for ensuring sustainable development in the livestock farming business. This study investigates, for the first time, the best investment strategy for a livestock farming business under the carbon cap (CC) environmental legislation, taking into account both the edible and non-edible parts of slaughtering mature growing items (GIs) after procuring and feeding baby GIs. By fusing economic and environmental factors, this study aims to shed light on two crucial issues: (i) figuring out the appropriate level of investment needed for the farm to adhere to the CC environmental regulation; and (ii) evaluating the effect of the investment decision on the farm's expenses and emissions levels. To deal with these insights, a thorough analytical framework integrating mathematical modeling methodology, economic evaluation, and carbon accounting approaches is employed. By analyzing the interaction between the farm's emissions reduction investments and replenishment choices, the cost-effective investment level is determined that enables the farm to satisfy the carbon cap obligation while guaranteeing maximum operational efficiency. The results of this study have important ramifications for livestock farming businesses trying to make their way through the stringent CC emission law. The results indicate that in order to keep the business feasible when the cap of the CC guideline is low, the livestock-producing farm should give priority to investing in minimizing feed emissions and using cutting-edge manure treatment methods.
