Nutritional Requirements for Fattening Lambs
Fattening lambs: energy and protein requirements for optimal growth
or
Detail description
This document details the energy and protein requirements for post-weaning lambs, comparing the INRAE 2018 French system (UFV and PDI) and the AFRC United Kingdom system (MJ/d and MP). It outlines maintenance and growth energy needs, with specific values for 250 g/day weight gain, and provides corresponding metabolisable energy and protein intakes across different live weights. The data supports nutritional planning for optimal lamb fattening.
