Contrat basé sur le gain de poids - Dans ce genre de contrat, le propriétaire paie l'engraisseur en fonction du nombre de livres ou de kilos pris par l'animal. Le gain de poids est établi en mesurant la différence entre le poids de l'animal à son arrivée et son poids à la fin de la période d'engraissement. Il est très important, dans ce type d'entente, d'évaluer la freinte (perte de poids durant le transport). 1, record 1, French, - contrat%20bas%C3%A9%20sur%20le%20gain%20de%20poids
