Predicting body weight from body measurements of pre-pubertal Ayrshire heifers

Predicting body weight from body measurements of pre-pubertal Ayrshire heifers

The relationship between heart girth, wither height, body length and body weight in 3- to 9.5-monthold pre-pubertal Finnish Ayrshire heifers gaining 600-650 g/d was analysed (experiment I). Regression analysis showed that heart girth was the trait most highly correlated to body weight (R2= 0.969). I...
