Sources of variability in lactational performance [PDF]
Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 1989 Variation in lactational performance comes about as a result of variation in the nature of the animal, its environment, or with time. Table 1 lists a variety of sources of variability, classified under broad headings of variation with the animal (species, breed and individual), with time and with various aspects of the environment. The list is probably
