Modeling results overview

Key takeaways from the Germany, Poland, and Turkey models.

Germany model

  • We integrate 55,306 milking events with harmonised climate observations to study joint drivers of milk yield, protein, and fat.
  • Causal rolling features and target-specific whitelists minimise information leakage in chronological validation.
  • Gradient-boosted tree models surpass linear baselines, with LightGBM and CatBoost achieving test-set R² between 0.75 and 0.89.

Re-run the pipeline when new milking or climate data becomes available.
