Table 3: Mean correction factors for foodstus greater than 1 collected after the implementation of the
production fact sheets compared with correction factors from other studies.
Among the CF obtained in the present study, there was signicant variation in the results
available in the literature, making it possible to compare losses, evaluation of raw material, storage,
receipt and labor used.
Even with the reduction of the correction factor of the unit’s genders after the implementation
of the forms, it was observed that some foods had HR values higher or lower than those of the other
studies. The HR of the unit’s curly lettuce was lower than Goes et al. (2013) and Ornellas et al. (2007)
and lower than Ricarte et al. (2008). Carrots and cucumbers had higher HR as reported by the authors
(Table 3), making it possible to improve the factor. Green pepper showed little signicant variation in
relation to Goes et al. (2013) and Ornellas et al. (2007). Beets were adequate only in the recommendation
of Ornellas et al. (2007) and the Fc of salad tomatoes was compatible only for Ornellas et al. (2007). In
relation to the other foods, the CF was not found for the proper comparisons.
With the reduction of the factors, consequently there was a reduction in the cost of meal
preparation, since the FC interferes in the cost values, in the sale price being an important factor to
