Download2013
Okine, E. K., Goonewardene, L. A., McFadden, T., Basarab, J. A., Wang, Z., Manafiazar, G., Li, P.
Residual Feed Intake (RFI) is a measure of energy efficiency. Developing an appropriate model to predict expected energy intake while accounting for multifunctional energy requirements of metabolic body weight (MBW), empty body weight (EBW), milk production energy requirements (MPER), and their...
