Abstract: Estimated the different statistical models of Inner Mongolia Sanhe cattle’s lactating curve which was based on mis-classification γ function (Wood model) by maximum likelihood method (ML), then test the differences by likelihood ratio(LR). As a result, model Ⅲ was significantly better than the model Ⅱ and Ⅰ(P<0.01). Estimated the model Ⅲ by REML, there were siginicantly differences of milk yield in initial stage under different pari, year, seas and herd(P<0.05). The growth rate of diraly milk yield had significantly difference with the test days(t), natural logarithm of the test days(t'), interaction of the pari and test days, interaction of the pari and natural logarithm of the test days. Milk yield in initial stage has positive or negative correlation with the slope rate coefficient of t and t' (P<0.01).
