Resumo: | This study examines the cost of applying ixodicides by using three methods (subcutaneous injection, pour-on and spraying), in different animal categories, to generate information that can help in the choice of the method. The research was carried out between May and September 2017, in the dairy cattle section of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of the South of Minas Gerais - IFSULDEMINAS - Muzambinho campus, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. All operational expenses related to the application of the ixodicides were recorded. Data were collected by three people: two to time the application of the product and one to record the measured data. Twenty-seven Holstein cattle infested with Rhipicephalus microplus were used, consisting of 12 calves, six heifers and nine adult cows. A simulation was carried out with 50 and 100 animals to check the effect of the production scale on the cost of applying the ixodicides. Application times (animal transport, product dosing and application itself) for the calves, heifers and cow categories were shorter in the injection and pour-on methods, which did not differ from each other in any of the three studied categories. The time spent per animal on the washing of personal protective equipment and washing of sprayer reduced as the number of animals increased, because these procedures are performed only once regardless of the number of animals. The pour-on method was the least expensive. Production scale was found to be an important factor for diluting fixed costs and optimizing labor. |

A pesquisa foi realizada entre maio a setembro de 2017, no setor de bovinocultura de leite do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Sul de Minas Gerais - IFSULDEMINAS - Campus Muzambinho, Minas Gerais. Foram levantadas todas as despesas operacionais referentes à aplicação de carrapaticida. A coleta dos dados foi realizada por três pessoas: duas para cronometrar o tempo de aplicação do produto e uma para anotar os dados aferidos. Foram utilizados 27 animais da raça Holandesa parasitadas por Rhipicephalus microplus, sendo 12 bezerras, seis novilhas e nove vacas adultas. Foi realizada uma simulação com 50 e 100 animais, visando verificar o efeito da escala de produção no custo da aplicação de carrapaticidas. Os tempos para as aplicações dos carrapaticidas (condução do animal, dosagem do produto e aplicação) das categorias de bezerras, novilhas e vacas foram menores nos métodos injetável e pour-on, que não diferiram entre si, em nenhuma das três categorias estudadas. Os tempos gastos por animal relacionados às lavagens do EPI e do pulverizador reduziram à medida que a quantidade de animais aumentou, devido ao fato desses procedimentos serem feitos somente uma vez independentemente da quantidade de animais. O método pour-on foi o de menor custo. Constatou-se que a escala de produção é um fator importante para diluição dos custos fixos e otimização da mão de obra.UEL2020-11-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa Empírica de CampoPesquisa Empírica de Campoapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/3715910.5433/1679-0359.2020v41n6Supl2p3121Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 41 No. 6Supl2 (2020); 3121-3132Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 41 n. 6Supl2 (2020); 3121-31321679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
