Sheep productivity in the Ethiopian highlands on a diet supplemented with urea-molasses block and/or noug cake
A feeding experiment was carried out in which adult ewes of the Ethiopian Highland Menz breed grazed on meadow pasture were supplemented with urea-molasses block and/or Noug cake. There was low consumption of urea-molasses block (67g/d) and its contribution to total nitrogen requirements was minimal...
