Distributions of the qualification process duration showed that, if average durations are identical, the earliest successes were obtained with strategy A1: qualification succeeded at the 1st simulated year in approximately 15% of simulated flocks, duration being ≤ 2 years in about one quarter of the simulated flocks.
