Abstract

The vicuña fibre (Vicugna vicugna) production system requires technologies that allow the quality of the fibers to be objectively determined. In this work, prediction models of Average Fineness in vicuña fleeces were developed and evaluated by near infrared reflectance spectroscopy. The model with the highest predictive capacity showed a determination coefficient R2= 0,72 and Residual Predictive Value= 2,10. This shows the potential of spectroscopy to be used in general determinations of the evaluated parameter
