Comparison of 2 types of milk flow meters for detecting bimodality in dairy cows
: The primary objective of this observational study was to investigate whether incremental milk flow rates (in the 0–15 s, 15–30 s, 30–60 s, and 60–120 s intervals) from electronic on-farm milk flow meters can be used to detect bimodal milk flow curves ...

PREDICTION OF LACTATION YIELD FROM LAST-RECORD DAY AND AVERAGE DAILY YIELD IN NILI-RAVI BUFFALOES [PDF]
Different adjustment procedures were compared to determine if prediction of lactation milk yield using last record day information could be improved by using information on the average daily milk yield of the recorded lactation. Weekly milk yield records

Phenotypic effects of calving ease on the subsequent fertility and milk production of dam and calf in UK Holstein-Friesian heifers [PDF]
The effect of calving ease on the fertility and production performance of both dam and calf was studied in approximately 50,000 and 10,000 UK Holstein-Friesian heifers and heifer calves, respectively. The first objective of this study was to estimate the

Genetic parameters for milk somatic cell score and relationships with production traits in primiparous dairy sheep [PDF]
A total of 13,066 first-lactation test-day records of 2,277 Valle del Belice ewes from 17 flocks were used to estimate genetic parameters for somatic cell scores (SCS) and milk production traits, using a repeatability test-day animal model.

Effect of farm system and milk urea phenotype on milk yield and milk composition of dairy cows in Canterbury [PDF]
To investigate the effect of farm system, and cow selection for milk urea nitrogen (MUN), on milk yield and milk composition, a farmlet study was carried out between October 2018 and May 2019 in Lincoln, Canterbury. A farm system with a low stocking rate
