From: An on-farm investigation of beef suckler herds using an animal welfare index (AWI)
Representation in the principal plan of the PCA of the 3 classes obtained with the hierarchical classification. The first factor, "Stockpersonship" represented 11% of the variance. The second factor, "health and probabilities of injury", represented 9% of the variance. Class 1 (mean AWI = 66%, higher interest of the farmer) n = 130; Class 2 (mean AWI = 62%, lower interest of the farmer) n = 59; Class 3 (mean AWI = 54%, lowest interest of the farmer) n = 5.
