The objective of this study was to evaluate the productivity efficiency indicators of cows selected for post-weaning weight, with emphasis in the calf-cow weight ratios, in a controlled herd (NeC), unselected for post-weaning weight, selection (NeS) and conventional (NeT). The analysis involved 3929 and 3906 calves weights at the 120 (P120) and 210 (P210) days of age, respectively. The cow weights at those ages were also considered, and the recorded numbers were 3824 (PV120) and 3777 (PV210), respectively, for 120 […]
