Evaluation of 12-month interval methods for estimating animal-times at risk in a traditional African livestock farming system
Demographic parameters are useful for assessing productivity and dynamics of tropical livestock populations. Common parameters are the annual instantaneous hazard rates, which can be estimated by m/T (where m represents the number of the considered demographic events occurred during the year and T t...
