3 a large reduction in the number of people that work for a particular company: --
a management/staff cull
The 6 treated pheasants contained 33n8p12n1 (1 standard error) worms when culled at 25 days post-infection.
At the end of the study, all birds were culled.
In the simulation, they are culled by default because of infertility.
The estimation of variance and covariance components with an application when records are subject to culling.
Following confirmation of cases, there is a period before the farm eliminates scrapie (culling infected animals and certain bloodlines).
Seropositive animals should be culled within 30 days of marking them on the farm.
Equations (2) can be modified to take into account the number of times (l) the individuals are bred before culling.
In the present work, we investigate the effect of more realistic, timevariant culling strategies by explicitly using a cost-benefit framework.
