• Abstract

  Brazil stands out in egg production, especially in São Paulo State, and this agroindustrial activity is responsible for a big part of the national economy. This expressive production demands an urgent need to research this topic. The increasing population and consequent increasing demand for food, has been pushing the agricultural sector, requiring techniques and studies that incorporate …

  Evaluation of variation coefficients, calculation of the plot and sample sizes in experiments in aviculture area, AP.R

• Abstract

  Considering that Brazil has the seventh largest egg production industry in the world and the third largest in the Americas, with a population of 20 billion hens, the country has potential for growth and development of new research. In zootechnical studies the quality of the experimental planning is directly related to the quality of the data, and the precision of these is related to the o…

  Estimation of experimental plot size based on the variation index of poultry experiments, BP.IC

• Abstract

  With the rapid increase in population and also the demand for food, the agricultural sector is gaining more and more space to expand, necessitating techniques and studies that integrate new technologies that allow a productive increase. Swine farming, as a sector of great relevance in the Brazilian meat production, being fourth largest exporter of pork, is an agricultural sector with grea…

  Evaluation of the coefficients of variation and estimation of plot size and sample in experiments in swine, BP.IC

• Abstract

  Brazil stands out in egg production, especially in São Paulo, and agro-industrial activity that moves much of the country's economy with this significant production, there is a great demand for research directed to this area. It is known that number of repetitions of the increase provides greater reliability in the results, but this increase may lead to higher increase in costs, which wou…

• Abstract

  The aim of this study will be to estimate the optimum plot size in swine studies through blank test by means of the Maximum Modified Curvature, Linear-Plateau Regression, Quadratic-Plateau Regression and Comparison of Variances methods, based on the variables considered of performance and yield. The blank test will be conduct at Auburn University, Auburn, AL, US. All nursey piglets in the…
