Abstract
AbstractThirty-five Assaf intact male lambs were divided into three groups and offered an all-concentrate pelleted diet based on barley and maize and supplemented with either toasted soya bean meal, herring meal or toasted soya bean meal plus methionine to contain 20% crude protein. The live-weight gains to a slaughter weight of 57 kg were 425, 440 and 394 g/day, and the feed conversion ratios were 3·12, 3·07 and 3·38 kg dry matter/kg gain, respectively. It is concluded that, with toasted soya bean meal as the protein supplement, it is possible to obtain high growth rates that do not diifer significantly from those obtained with herring meal.
