bw: body weight.
a
HRP: highest reliable percentile, i.e. the highest percentile that is considered statistically robust for combinations of dietary survey, age class and possibly raw primary commodity, considering that a minimum of 5, 12, 30 and 61 observations are respectively required to derive 50th, 75th and 90th and 95th percentile estimates. Estimates with less than 5 observations were not included in this table.
