milk composition variables indicated by the following: Average Daily Milk Yield (ADMY), Milk Fat Content (MFC), Milk Protein Content (MPC), Milk
Lactose Content (MLC), Milk Fat Yield (MFY), Milk Protein Yield (MPY), Milk Lactose Yield (MLY), Fat Protein Ratio (FPR), Fat Lactose Ratio (FLR),
Protein Lactose Ratio (PLR). Variable abbreviations starting with d are the current minus the previous values of milk measures in question. Yield values are
in kilogram per day (kg/day), content values are in percentages (%) and ratios are unitless. The measures used were group mean averages.
