The objective of this trial was to evaluate production of nursing ewes and yearling female lambs grazing annual ryegrass pasture (Lolium multiflorum Lam) supplemented or not with corn grain or soybean meal. Supplements were fed to animals in a quantity equivalent to 1% of sheep unit (ewe + lamb) body weight. The following variables were investigated: average daily gain, body weight gain per hectare, and stocking rate while for ryegrass pasture the following measurements were taken: forage mass, losses, and […]
