Phenotypic variation in live weight and live-weight changes of lactating Holstein-Friesian cows
AbstractThis study quantified individual phenotypic variation in live weight and live-weight changes during the first three lactations and estimated the effects of age, lactation week and pregnancy on live weight. Data comprised weekly averaged live weight (calculated from daily observations) during 452 lactations of 239 Holstein-Friesian cows ...
