Residual feed intake adjusted for backfat thickness and feeding frequency is independent of fertility in beef heifers
Download2011
McCartney, D., Ambrose, D. J., Colazo, M. G., Baron, V. S., Novak, S., Basarab, J. A.
This study examined the effects of residual feed intake (RFI), RFI adjusted for off-test backfat thickness (RFIfat) and RFI adjusted for off-test backfat thickness and feeding event frequency (RFIfat & activity) on heifer fertility and productivity. Beef heifers (n=190) were monitored for...
