Abstract excerpt
This study compared portable ultra-wide band microwave system (MiS) versus body condition score to predict C-site fat depth, GR tissue depth and eye muscle depth (EMD) in lambs. Experiment 1 assessed MiS and condition score to predict ultrasound measured C-site and EMD (n = 1549). Precision and accuracy was greatest for the MiS measurement with liveweight included in the model, with a C-site predicted RMSEP of...
