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

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

Comparison Between Different Functions of the Lactation Curve [PDF]
Six mathematical functions; Wood, Mitscherlich* exponential, Michaelis-Menten* exponential, Logistic* exponential, Weibull* exponential and Multiphasic; were used to describe the lactation curve of the monthly test- day average of 12020 Holstein Fresian ...
