چکیده
The present investigation was undertaken to access age at first calving, actual lifetime milk yield per day of productive life, herd life and total life. non-genetic factors such as period birth, season AFC group farms on these traits were studied by least-squares analysis the means compared using Duncan's multiple range test. for estimated 1668.3±16.6 days, 1.878±0.04 litres/day, 1.735±0.05 litres/day 1.029±0.03 respectively. Farm birth had significant effect In time effect. class

متن کاملCalving day and age at first calving in Angus heifers.
Because of difficulties in data collection and analysis, in most breeds there have been limited ways to evaluate fertility in females on a between-herd basis. The objective of this study was to determine the heritabilities (direct and maternal) for CD (calving day) and AFC (age at first calving) in American Angus heifers and to evaluate the potential for using these traits in genetic improvemen...
متن کاملG enetic relationships between calving date, calving interval, age at first calving and type traits in beef cattle
In this paper the genetic relationships between major reproductive traits in beef cattle (Calving Date, Calving Interval and Age at First Calving) and type traits have been estimated to evaluate the usefulness of type classification in predicting reproductive performance in beef cattle. We estimated favourable genetic correlations between Calving Interval and type traits ranging from 2 0.027 to...
متن کاملThe Effect of Age at First Calving and Calving Interval on Productive Life and Lifetime Profit in Korean Holsteins
This study was performed to estimate the effect of age at first calving and first two calving intervals on productive life and life time profit in Korean Holsteins. Reproduction data of Korean Holsteins born from 1998 to 2004 and lactation data from 276,573 cows with birth and last dry date that calved between 2000 and 2010 were used for the analysis. Lifetime profit increased with the days of ...
متن کاملReduced Age at First Calving: Effects on Lifetime Production, Longevity, and Profitability
The time between birth and first calving represents a period in which replacement heifers are not generating income. Instead this rearing period requires considerable capital expenditures including feed, housing, and veterinary expenses. These expenses constitute 15 to 20% of the total expenses related to milk production (Heinrichs, 1993). A basic approach to reducing this cost is to reduce the...
