The software Livestock Feeding Strategies Simulation Models, LIFE-SIM was developed within the Natural Resources Management Division of the International Potato Center (CIP).
The objective of the models is to evaluate the effects of different feeding strategies (scenario) on animal performance. Therefore, LIFE-SIM is comprised of four specific models for ruminant animals (Dairy, Beef, Buffalo, and Goat) and one for non-ruminants (Swine). |
