Selection of models of lactation curves to use in milk production simulation systems
The objective of this study was to select models of lactation curves with a better adjustment to the observed data in models of milk production simulation systems.

Zusammenfassung: | The objective of this study was to select models of lactation curves with a better adjustment to the observed data in models of milk production simulation systems. A data base on 6,459 recordings of daily milk production was used. These data were obtained from monthly and fortnightly controls of milk between 2004 and 2007, from 472 lactations of animals from ten different milking cow herd farms. Based on rolling averages of milk production (MP-L/day) per cow, the ten herd farms were divided into low (L < 15), medium (15 |
