Describing through an example from my company:
• Specialization in red meat production from bovine• Learning curves for poultry and ovine are different from that of
bovine• Avoiding dairy cattle as its meat/bone ratio is low
• Balancing of vertical integration and outsourcing • Outsourcing wheat, barley, clover-based feed; but own plantation of
corn to produce silage• Proprietary control over distribution, manufacturing/sales of
delicatessen
• Spillover effects of upstream operations quality on branded downstream production
