Effect of dry period length on milk yield over multiple lactations [PDF]
Shortening or omitting the dry period (DP) can improve the energy balance of dairy cows in early lactation through a decrease in milk yield after calving. Little is known about the effect of a short or no DP on milk yield over multiple lactations. Our objectives were (1) to assess the effect of DP length over multiple lactations on milk yield, and (2 ...

Productive performance of indigenous and HF crossbred dairy cows in Gondar, Ethiopia [PDF]
Aim: To study the magnitude of variation in lactation length (LL), lactation milk yield (LMY) and peak-yield (PY)due to genetic and non-genetic cases in indigenous and crossbred cattle reared under private dairy unit in and around Gondar, Ethiopia ...

Genetic parameters and trends for lactation length in the first three lactations of Holstein cows [PDF]
Abstract. Calving records from the Animal Breeding Center of Iran collected from January 1986 to December 2007 and comprising 492424 calving events of Holsteins from 1413 dairy herds were analysed using linear animal models to estimate genetic parameters for lactation lengths in the first three lactations of Holstein cows.

Genetic profile of total body energy content of Holstein cows in the first three lactations [PDF]
Weekly total body energy content (TBEC) was calculated for 444 Holstein cows in their first 3 lactations. These calculations were based on body lipid and protein changes predicted from weekly changes in body condition score and live weight of each cow ...

SOME FACTORS AFFECTING MILK YIELD AND LACTATION LENGTH IN NILI RAVI BUFFALOES [PDF]
Effects of parity, lactation length, calving season, calf sex and service period on milk yield for 426 records in 134 Nili Ravi buffaloes maintained at the National Agricultural Research Center, Islamabad Pakistan during 1988-2004 were evaluted.
