Effects of phosphorus supplementation upon the performance of West African Dwarf lambs

Evaluates the need for phosphorus supplementation in West African Dwarf lambs fed on hay, the typical dry-season feed of tropical livestock. Presents data on the composition of concentrate supplements, weight gains and feed consumption, changes in liveweight gains and serum inorganic phosphorus with...

description Evaluates the need for phosphorus supplementation in West African Dwarf lambs fed on hay, the typical dry-season feed of tropical livestock. Presents data on the composition of concentrate supplements, weight gains and feed consumption, changes in liveweight gains and serum inorganic phosphorus with and without P supplement, ash, calcium, phosphorus & magnesium content of the ribs and femurs, and quality characteristics of the humerus bone.
