Investigations into traditionally managed Djallonke-sheep production in the humid and subhumid zones of Asante, Ghana. III. Relationship between birth weight, preweaning growth, and postweaning growth of Lambs
Birth weight, which is subject to difference to prenatal nutrition, increased with parities to the fifth among the subhumid zone (SH = 1.89 kg) dams and to the sixth among the humid zone (H = 1.71 kg) dams. Seasonal influence did not significantly affect birth weights in either zone. Litter type had...
