Adjustment factors for age and month of calving were developed from Holstein lactation records in Ecuador. Age factors were similar to those in the United States, but calendar month effects were small, apparently because of uniform feeding and manage

Outcrossing, mild inbreeding, and crossbreeding in a common foundation of Holstein cows were compared in the Beltsville herd from 1957 through 1970. The outcross and mildly inbred systems consisted of four generations, and the crossbred system consis

Body dimensions and weights of female progeny from three systems of mating were studied from birth to first calving. Heifers produced by outcrossing to Holstein sires in artificial insemination were largest up to first calving, at which time the aver

Milk production, feed consumption and body weight data were collected on 661 lactations of 318 Holstein cows by 17 sires to study the genetic aspects of gross feed efficiency of milk production. Gross feed efficiency was defined as the ratio kilogram

Lactation records of 228 first lactation Jerseys were utilized to assess the importance of sire×ration interactions. Daughters of 13 sires were divided randomly into two groups at calving and assigned to either an all forage ration or a forage plus

Summary Environmental studies for 230 cows over 462 lactations were made for 7 yr. Statistical estimates of general environmental changes and the specific changes resulting from the influences of feeding and management factors were computed and compa

The Dairy Herd Improvement Association (DHIA) age factors of Kendrick and McDaniel were compared using 10,620 first lactations made in Michigan Holstein herds during the period 1961–63. The effectiveness of the alternative age adjustments was judge
