Genetic parameters for calf feeding traits derived from automated milk feeding machines and number of bovine respiratory disease treatments in North American Holstein calves

Genetic parameters for calf feeding traits derived from automated milk feeding machines and number of bovine respiratory disease treatments in North American Holstein calves

ABSTRACT: Precision livestock farming technologies, such as automatic milk feeding machines, have increased the availability of on-farm data collected from dairy operations. We analyzed feeding records from automatic milk feeding machines to evaluate the genetic background of milk feeding traits and...
