  1. Aim:- Estimation of weight on body measurements | Vigyan Ashram | INDUSA PTI |

  2. Materials:-1. Animal for weighing.2. Weighing machine or platform scale.3. Measuring tape.4. Measuring rod. | Vigyan Ashram | INDUSA PTI |

  3. Procedure. A] Direct method. Animal is weighed directly on weighing machines or platform scales. B] Alternate method / indirect method. In this method, weight of an animal is indirectly calculated from body measurements C] Schaeffer’s formula:- It is widely accepted for estimating body weight of an adult cattle. | Vigyan Ashram | INDUSA PTI |

  4. The formulae used in indirect methodfor estimating body weight are as below. Length × Girth 2 Live body weight (in pounds) = 300 Were, Length = Distance between point of shoulder to pin bone in inches. Girth = Entire circumference of the body behind the point of elbowing inches | Vigyan Ashram | INDUSA PTI |

  5. Agarwals Formula:- It is modified Schaeffer’s formula for Indian cattle. Length × Girth Live body weight = ( in pounds) Y Where. Y = 9 if the girth is less than 1.62 meters. Y = 8.5 if the girth is less than 1.62-2.0 meters. Y = 8.0 if the girth is less than 2.0 meters. | Vigyan Ashram | INDUSA PTI |
