Repeatability of traits for characterizing feed intake patterns in dairy goats: a basis for phenotyping in the precision farming context
In ruminants, feeding behaviour variables are parameters involved in feed efficiency that show variation among individuals. This study aimed to evaluate during the first two production cycles in ruminants the repeatability of feed intake pattern, which is an important aspect of feeding behaviour. Th...
