in this research, in order to describe milk production traits lactation mahabadi goat breed, seven statistical functions were fitted using 1665 milk production traits records and 833 body weight records. the milk production traits were milk yield, fat percent, fat yield, protein percent, protein yield, lactose percent and snf percent. these records have been recorded on 123 goats during years o...

in this research, 272977 test day records collected from 659 herds during years 2001 to 2011 by the iranian animal breeding center were used. in the first section the ability of different models to predict daily milk yield from alternative milk recording was tested. the result showed that a complex model including noon milking time plus the effect of lactation curve of ali and schaeffer functio...

A total of 989,582 test-day records of 160,243 first-parity cows collected from 131 herds of Iranian Holstein dairy cows from 1995 to 2014 by the Animal Breeding and Improvement Centre of Iran, were used to determine the best model for lactation curves of fat to protein ratio (FPR) and somatic cell scores (SCS) in the first lactation. Several mathematical models including the Wood (WD), Wilmink...
