Grazing behaviour, intake, digestion, performance and endoparasitic infection of lambs raised at different stocking rates under low-input farming systems

Abstract: Twenty-four Boutsiko breed lambs were allocated to three groups of equal average live weight (LW: 20.8 kg) and pastured at three stocking rates: SR1, SR2 and SR3 (representing 60, 80 and 100 lambs/ha respectively) under low-input farming practices. Animals were grazed on a semi natural sward daily, during a 60 days period.

On average, the lambs grazed 372 min, ruminated… Show more
