Comparison of reproductive performance, mortality rate and productivity of Menz and Horro sheep breeds of Ethiopia
Ewe reproduction, productivity and lamb mortality were studied in grazing Horro and Menz ewes treated with FGA intravaginal sponges in the wet or dry season to compare the performance of the two indigenous Ethiopian highland breeds. There was a significant (p<0.001) difference in fertility rate (79...
