dc.description.abstract | An experiment was conducted to assess the growth performance and carcass traits of Madras red lambs under feedlot system with complete diet of three different roughage to concentrate ratios of 60:40 (High forage- HF), 50150 (medium forage MF), 40:60 (low forage - LF). Madras red lambs (24) weaned at the age of 2 months were randomly allotted to four groups of six each viz. HF group, MF group, LF group and control group (grazing with supple- mentation). Slaughter studies were conducted at the end of the experiment The lambs raised under low forage diet (LF) had significantly (P<0.0l) higher body weight and average daily gain than the other treatment groups. | |
