Does modeling causal relationships improve the accuracy of predicting lactation milk yields?
JDS Communications, 2023 This study compared 3 correlational (best prediction, linear regression, and feed-forward neural networks) and 2 causal models (recursive structural equation model and recurrent neural networks) for estimating lactation milk yields.

Climate Change Mitigation in the Dairy Sector: Uncovering Heterogeneity Through Eco‐Efficiency Clubs
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Combining climate change goals with economic targets is crucial for the dairy sector, which is a significant contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide. In this paper, we assess economic and climate change implications of dairy production with panel data of Irish dairy farms from 2013 to 2021.

Daily milk yield correction factors: What are they?
JDS Communications, 2023 Cows are typically milked 2 or more times on a test-day, but not all these milkings are sampled and weighed. The initial approach estimated a test-day yield with doubled morning (AM) or evening (PM) yield in the AM-PM milking plans, assuming equal AM and
