Brazil is amongst the world’s largest swine producers. However, its competitiveness has been vulnerable due to a lack of cooperation between supply chain players. This condition makes financial losses be evaluated taking into account only an individual node, and most time, these damages are imputed by breeders. Living weight occur farm slaughterhouses, main cause pre-slaughter handling, especially during animal transportation. In this research, we analyzed handling in Brasilândia, MS,...
