Digestible organic matter requirements of Ethiopian Menz sheep: Model and application
A static model for predicting either the growth rates or digestible organic matter (DOMI) required to meet predetermined levels of growth is developed. Parameters in the model were derived using data collected in ILRI-DZ laboratory from 6 growth studies (involving a total of 242 Ethiopian Menz sheep...
