Impact of Haemonchus contortus infection on feed intake, digestion, liveweight gain, and enteric methane emission from Red Maasai and Dorper sheep
A study was conducted with Red Maasai and Dorper lambs to evaluate the effects of infection with the gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) Haemonchus contortus on feed intake, liveweight gain (LWG), feed energy and nitrogen partitioning, and enteric methane (CH4) emissions. Six- to seven-month-old Red Maa...
