Describing the lactation curve of dairy animals

Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 1999
Most functions used to describe the lactation curve of dairy animals are empirical in approach and result in parameters with little or no biological meaning. A new model for describing lactation based on the biology of the pregnant and lactating animal is proposed and compared to several empirical models (Wood, 1967; Grossman and Koops, 1988; Morant ...

Algebraic Model of the Lactation Curve in Cattle

Nature, 1967
MANY factors may influence the total milk yield of a single lactation, but the general shape of the curve, defined by the locus of weekly yield, remains substantially unchanged. Economically, the configuration of the curve is important, for the animal which produces milk at a moderate level steadily throughout her lactation is to be preferred to one ...
