Quantifying inter-group variability in lactation curve shape and magnitude with the MilkBot® lactation model [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
Genetic selection programs have driven development of most lactation models, to estimate the magnitude of animals’ productive capacity from sampled milk production data.

Comparison of lactation curve models for fortnightly test day milk yield

open access: yesIndian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020
The study of lactation curve helps to predict lactation milk production at a certain point of time and provides useful information for taking desirable decisions on preliminary sire evaluation, early culling of poor producers, breeding and feeding ...

Genetic parameters of a biological lactation model: early lactation and secretion rate traits of dairy heifers

open access: yesAnimal, 2009
Early lactation parameters are difficult to estimate from commercial dairy records due to the small number of records available before the peak of production.

Non-nutritional factors affecting lactation persistency in dairy ewes: a review

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
Milk production is largely related to the shape of the lactation curve. Key elements of the lactation pattern are peak yield, which is the maximum daily yield reached during lactation, and lactation persistency, which is the medium rate of milk yield ...

Comparison of different lactation curve models to describe lactation curve in Awassi sheep raised in Turkey [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Ecology and Environmental Research, 2019
The study was carried out in the International GAP Agricultural Research and Training Centre (GATEA) between the years 2010-2014 in Diyarbakır, Turkey. The aims of this study were 1) to compare 8 different models (MG, Dhanoa, Nelder, Wood, CLD, and 2nd-, 3rd-and 4th-degree polynomial) used to describe the lactation curve for Awassi sheep by using 557 ...

EMMA WOOD LACTATION CURVE

open access: yes, 2021
The data shows the Parameters (a, b, c) of lactation curve of 21 lactation West African Dwarf Does milked for twelve weeks, it also shows factors that affect this parameters. The values of the parameters were generated using Wood equation 1967.
