The use of farmer-recall in field data collection typically allows for relatively quick and low-cost information gathering. Such data can often be gathered using a simple cross-sectional survey, in many cases requiring only a single farm visit. In return, however, there may be an increase in meas...

Autor: Tanner, J.C. McCarthy, N.A. Omore, Amos O.

In European dairy herds lactation curves are conventionally described by a gamma function such as that of Wood (1969). High yields in early lactation mean that more frequent calving leads to increased annual milk production (AMP) per cow. Thus, the optimum calving interval in the UK is 365 days (...
