Number of infections events occurring via heifer-to-heifer transmission route in 100 simulations at 5th year while considering, (a) no control(b) control I (aggressive culling), (c) control II (culling open red cows after 305 DIM), (d) control III (culling dam and offspring) and (e) control IV (culling dam not the offspring)for 9 different scenarios. In the box plot, the bottom and top end of the bars are the 5th and 95th percentiles, respectively, the top of the box is the 75th percentile, the bottom of the box is the 25th percentile, the horizontal line within the box is the median and the open square is the mean; outliers are presented as solid circles.
