Predicting empty body weight in growing goats: A meta-analytic approach [PDF]
Small Ruminant Research, 2017 Abstract The objective of this study was to develop statistical models to predict empty body weight (EBW) by body weight (BW), testing the influence of sex (females, intact males or castrated males), type of diet (suckling or post-weaning), and genotype (Saanen, ½ Boer × ½ Saanen, ¾ Boer × ¼ Saanen, and Indigenous goats).

PSVII-8 Equations for prediction of empty body weight of water buffaloes finished in feedlot [PDF]
J Anim Sci, 2020 Abstract This study aimed to develop equations to predict the empty body weight (EBW) using the shrunk body weight (SBW) of water buffaloes of three genetic groups (GG:Jafarabadi, Mediterranean, and Murrah; n = 65 for each GG), considering possible variations among GG.

EVALUATION OF MODELS TO ESTIMATE EMPTY BODY WEIGHT IN HAIR SHEEP RAISED IN A FEEDLOT SYSTEM
Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2022 Background. The empty body weight (EBW) represents exactly the animal mass and is used as a base to calculate most of the nutrient requirements in most feeding systems. Objective.

Journal of Animal Science, 2022 Abstract Existing equations to estimate empty body weight of cattle from live or carcass weight were developed over 40 years ago using different cattle genetics. The objective of this analysis was to evaluate existing equations using cattle genetics from that time to today.

Allometric Growth Coefficients of Carcass Components and Carcass Waste in Awassi Lambs
Maǧallaẗ al-baṣraẗ al-ʻulūm al-zirāʻiyyaẗ, 2022 This study aims to evaluate the developmental trends and the allometric growth values of carcass components and carcass waste in Awassi lambs. Twenty five entire Awassi lambs were seriously slaughtered at 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 kg.

Development and evaluations of equations to predict empty body weight in pre-weaned hair sheep lambs [PDF]
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e ZootecniaThis research aimed to assess the relationships among shrunk body weight (SBW) and empty body weight (EBW) to develop equations to estimate EBW in 121 pre-weaned hair sheep lambs from different genotypes (Pelibuey, n=39; Katahdin, n=27 and crossbred ...

ALLOMETRIC GROWTH PATTERNS OF BODY AND CARCASS COMPONENT IN DOCKED AND INTACT KARADI LAMBS
The Iraqi Journal of Agricultural science, 2023 To study the allometric growth of body and carcass traits, twelve new born Karadi lambs were docked within 3 days of their birth using rubber-rings, and left with their mothers till weaning (2.5 months).
