Usefullness of laction curve modelling.
Who am I
Hi I am Yongyan Chen. I came from China and started my phd at December 2019. My research focus is on the usefulness of lactation curve modelling.
What project I am working on
There are four chapters in my phd thesis:
- A procedure to develop annual herd level lactation curve characteristics from individual cow level data for Dutch dairy farms
- An empirical analysis of economic herd performance in relation to herd lactation curve characteristics
- Prediction of persistency at day 305 in lactation at the moment of the insemination decision
- Association between pregnancy stage and lactation persistency in dairy cattle
