Convergence Properties Of Solutions Of A Length-Structured Density-Dependent Model For Fish, Geigh Zollicoffer
Convergence Properties Of Solutions Of A Length-Structured Density-Dependent Model For Fish, Geigh Zollicoffer
Rose-Hulman Undergraduate Mathematics Journal
We numerically study solutions to a length-structured matrix model for fish populations in which the probability that a fish grows into the next length class is a decreasing nonlinear function of the total biomass of the population. We make conjectures about the convergence properties of solutions to this equation, and give numerical simulations which support these conjectures. We also study the distribution of biomass in the different age classes as a function of the total biomass.
Milking Machine Efficiency And Shed Husbandry Practices, G R. Olney
Milking Machine Efficiency And Shed Husbandry Practices, G R. Olney
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
MILKING machine efficiency on dairy farms in the Bridgetown, Greenbushes, Balingup, Boyup Brook and Nannup areas was the subject of a recent testing survey.
During the survey 106 machines were tested and the results assessed statistically to gauge the general level of machine efficiency in these districts.
Sharpening And Care Of Mulesing Shears, A L. Jones
Sharpening And Care Of Mulesing Shears, A L. Jones
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THIS year will probably see more sheep mulesed in Western Australia than ever before.
It is not surprising, therefore, that some improvements have been made to the standard mulesing shears.
New modified shears make mulesing easier —but they must be properly sharpened.
Back Flushing On Milking Machine Teat Cups, G W R Scott, K. Needham
Back Flushing On Milking Machine Teat Cups, G W R Scott, K. Needham
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE possibility of replacing the dipping of teat cups between cows with a system of back flushing with water has been investigated for some time by different workers.
