Abstract

Data from 806 calves from 306 cows during the years 1955-1962 at "Brian Pastures" Pasture Research station in South-Eastern Queensland were analysed. The inter-relationships between birth weight, weaning age, daily gain to weaning, weaning weight, weaning score, yearling weight, yearling score, gain from weaning to yearling and daily gain during four 3-monthly sub-periods of that time were studied.
