The objective of this work was to verify if it is necessary to adjust the 305-day milk yield for yield in the early lactation in determining the effect of days open on milk production. The yields in early lactation were represented by the cumulative yield up to 80, 100 or 120 days and summit production. The analyses were conducted for the first and following lactation using models that accounted for present and previous days open, respectively. An animal model for […]

The objective of this work was to evaluate the weight gain, feed efficiency and carcass characteristics of dairy steers. Sixteen Holstein dairy steers with initial average age and weight of 20 months and 202,0 kg were used. The animals were divided into four groups. One group of animals was slaughtered at the beginning of the trial (AI) and three groups were ad libitum fed (AL-1, AL-2 and AL-3) and they were slaughtered when the individual weights of 250.0, 300.0 and […]
