This is a simple summary document to monitor the data for each methane trial. The goal is to get at least 30 records with a duration of more then 3 minutes.
The summary for the units currently @ YANCO is:
Time on test:
#Pen Summary
## Time difference of 41 days
After cleaning for outliers per individual (3 SD from individual’s mean)
##Cupdrop pattern across groups
##Cupdrop pattern across Breeds
##Total animals measured in the groups by breed
##Total animals visiting by weight class
##total animals missed per group by breed
The following table represents cupdrops over the trial period (similar to what is seen on the C-Lock website)
##number of animals visited for 2 or more days since trial recording
began
## [1] "number of animals visited for 2 or more days since trial recording began"
## [1] 106
##Histogram of number of visits since trial recording began
Note: position 1 - back of the trailer has one extra feeder position 0 = unit 463
##Trailer preference
##Animal Summary
The following Graph shows the number of animals and the cumulative number of records (greater than 2mins). ie. 4 animals with 10-15 records
## [1] 120.9808
##tracking usage over time
the following plots are an attempt to track usage over time. The first plot is a histogram of usage over the day in minutes - 500 minutes = 08:20 1000 = 16:40
##histogram of data usage over time
##histogram of times of cupdrops of animals with more than 32 2min methane records AKA “PIGS” and less than 15 2min methane records AKA “SHY FEEDERS”
##Boxplot of Pigs and Shy Feeders - mean 25 AND 75 percentiles
This is a histogram of visitation over the day. Time is in minutes - 1440 minutes in a day
Interesting pattern forming here. We need to check if animals have patterns it would be good to see if machine usage is different for different groups of animals - pigs vs shy feeders. Potentially we may need manage usage over the day a little
