Pork production is a complex and highly competitive business and managers must focus on the right opportunities to be competitive. Cargill can be an important ally in helping you evaluate your operation, identify and manage risk, and streamline your milling operation to safely produce nutritious feed.

Metrics for success

The LEVER™ System business diagnostic tool was developed by Cargill to assist pork producers in evaluating their business. It is a simple and powerful system to identify, define and quantify opportunities for improvement, giving you the information necessary to focus on strategies with the highest impact on your business.

With The LEVER™ System diagnostic tool you can compare your business to your competition, whether you want to measure yourself against the industry standard, the top 30 percent, even the top 10 percent. Its flexibility allows you to choose custom comparisons based on internal standards, goals or targets.

Comparisons are available for every phase of a pork production business, productivity and financials. The LEVER™ System gap analysis function then attaches a dollar value to the opportunity, giving you the ability to prioritize and focus your efforts.
