Sentence examples for moderate offtake rates from inspiring English sources

Thus, high natural herd growth (8.4%) and moderate offtake rates (6.9%) allowed households to maintain herd sizes with a marginal net increase in cattle numbers (1.6%), allowing pastoralists to survive without depleting their herds, despite their significant production costs.

High natural herd growth and moderate offtake allows households to maintain and increase their herd sizes.

Offtake rates lower than those reported in similar production systems (Ducrotoy 2015; Pullan and Grindle 1980) were partly due to good prices for cattle and partly due to livelihood diversification which has reduced reliance on cattle sales for income.

We therefore explored offtake rates between 128,000 and 1.5 million in our model of population sizes and exploitation pressure (Fig. 2).

We also created a simple model to estimate the current population size that would be needed to support current offtake rates for a given intensity of exploitation at equilibrium.

Solving for N gives us: N = Y r max (1 - N / K ) which allows us to estimate how large the current population would have to be at equilibrium to support a range of potential offtake rates given rmax values.

However, the high offtake rate of heifers is very unusual (18.6% of all sales), as this compromises the future growth of the herd (Abaelu 1973; Pullan and Grindle 1980; Sieff 1995).

Moderate rates of fertiliser significantly increased crop yield and P offtake with all tillage systems at all landscape positions, but ploughing gave 9 15% less P offtake than did any of the reduced tillage systems.
