The amalgamation operation is frequently used to reduce the number of parts of compositional data but it is a non-linear operation in the simplex with the usual geometry,
the Aitchison geometry. The concept of balances between groups, a particular coordinate system designed over binary partitions of the parts, could be an alternative to the
amalgamation in some cases. In this work we discuss the proper application of both
concepts using a real data set corresponding to behavioral measures of pregnant sows
