On-farm experimentation is often described in terms of the amount of researcher and farmer involvement in the design and management of the trial. In many on-farm livestock experiments the farmer manages the trial, and we assume this here. The extent of the farmer's input to the design of the study and the types of measurements depend on the objectives of the study. Below we illustrate the range of on-farm livestock research. 2, record 4, English, - on%2Dfarm%20experimentation
