Pork cycle. A schematic diagram of the pork cycle. In economics, the term pork cycle, hog cycle, or cattle cycle [1] describes the phenomenon of cyclical fluctuations of supply and prices in livestock markets. It was first observed in 1925 in pig markets in the US by Mordecai Ezekiel and in Europe in 1927 by the German scholar Arthur Hanau [ de].
Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems.It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and use learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals.

Feed conversion ratio (FCR) is the ratio of inputs to outputs; it is the inverse of "feed efficiency" which is the ratio of outputs to inputs. [ 2] FCR is widely used in hog and poultry production, while FE is used more commonly with cattle. [ 2] Being a ratio the FCR is dimensionless, that is, it is not affected by the units of measurement ...

A computer is a machine that can be programmed to automatically carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations ( computation ). Modern digital electronic computers can perform generic sets of operations known as programs. These programs enable computers to perform a wide range of tasks. The term computer system may refer to a nominally ...
Turing machines. A Turing machine is a mathematical model of computation describing an abstract machine [ 1] that manipulates symbols on a strip of tape according to a table of rules. [ 2] Despite the model's simplicity, it is capable of implementing any computer algorithm. [ 3]
