Effects of supplementary feeding on growth and carcass characteristics of fat-tailed lambs grazing cereal stubble
Despite a shortage of animal feed in Iran, cereal stubble is often underutilized due to agro-economic reasons. On the other hand, lambs fed with a conventional fattening ration deposit a considerable amount of fat; therefore, this experiment was conducted aimed at better utilization of cereal stubble and reducing the fat content of lamb carcasses. Fat-tailed Mehraban and Ghezel ram lambs were p...
متن کاملEffects of shearing and supplemental level on intake of dry ewes grazing on barley stubble.
Twenty-eight Comisana dry ewes were utilised to evaluate the effect of shearing (14 shorn and 14 unshorn ewes) and supplemental level (100 and 300g of concentrate) on intake of barley stubble. Shorn ewes showed a small increase in dry matter intake (at the end of August: 1.32 vs. 1.10kg/day; p<0.01). Intake of barley stubble decreased as supplement level increased (mean: 1.18 vs. 1.29; p<0.01)....

متن کاملLambing performance of Morlam and Dorset ewes under accelerated lambing systems.
Two accelerated lambing systems, Morlam using Morlam sheep (USDA, Beltsville 1966 to 1975) and Camal using Dorset ewes (Cornell 1978 to 1981), were evaluated for first lambing ages, interlambing intervals and conception probabilities. Morlam ewes were continuously exposed to rams over the year, while Camal Dorset ewes were exposed every other month. Morlam lambs were mated as early as 367 d of ...
متن کاملLupin Grain as a Supplement to Sheep Grazing Cereal Stubble
Two experiments tested the use of lupin grain as a supplement for weaners grazing wheat stubble. The control groups in both trials received no supplement until liveweights dropped to 22 kg and then lupins were fed. In 1984 two lick-blocks were tested; the Rumevite "Sheep and Cattle" block and the ICI "Ultrapro 30" block. Liveweight changes of animals on the control (5 weeks), Rumevite block, IC...
