Presents results of analyses carried out on a range of performance traits and productivity estimates for indigenous Arsi & Zebu cattle and their crosses with Jersey & Friesian, maintained for milk production at Asela station & on smallholder farms in the Arsi region of Ethiopia; includes data on ...
Presents a cattle herd simulation model which is time dynamic, stochastic, non-optimizing & integer and permits the evaluation of herd performance under alternative production regimes; discusses the analytical background to the biological relationships represented in the model, describes detailed...

Cattle herd dynamics: An integer and stochastic model for evaluating production alternatives
Describes a dynamic & stochastic simulation model, specifying its driving variables & validating it for production conditions in a study area in Botswana. Compares the simulated performance of Tswana & Simmental x Tswana cattle, analysing economic trade-offs between milk & meat production under v...
