This document discusses the modeling of feed efficiency (FE) in dairy cattle, highlighting the differences between regression on expected feed intake (ReFI) and residual feed intake (RFI) approaches. The study found that ReFI is more suitable for genetic evaluation of FE due to its ability to account for multiplicative effects of feed quality, while RFI tends to underestimate additive genetic variance. Results from both simulated and real data analyses support the preference for the ReFI model in estimating
