COMPARISON OF DIFFERENT PROCEDURES FOR LACTATION LENGTH ADJUSTMENT OF MILK YIELD IN SAHIWAL CATTLE [PDF]
The purpose of the present study was to compare three procedures for lactation length adjustment of milk yield. For this purpose, weekly milk yield records (n = 2039) of Sahiwal cows were used. Multiplicative adjustments using simple linear regression of

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

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

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.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS AFFECTING MILK YIELD AND LACTATION LENGTH IN SAHIWAL CATTLE [PDF]
Weekly milk yield records on 661 Sahiwal cows calving during 1990-2000 at the Livestock Experiment Station Bahadurnagar, Okara were used to study how milk yield and lactation length were affected by different environmental factors.
