RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MILK SOLIDS YIELD EFFICIENCY AND POSTPARTUM BODY WEIGHT IN A PASTORAL DAIRY FARM IN CHILE
ABSTRACT In Chile, dairy industries pay for raw milk based on kg of milk solids (fat + protein). Productive efficiency can be defined as kg of milk solids per unit of land, and it is necessary to use biologically efficient cows to achieve high productive efficiency. Productive efficiency was defined...
