What is the benefit or value of the following practices to a livestock producer?
(i) Flushing of sheep/goats
(ii) Creep feeding of calves/lambs/goat kids
(iii) Botanical composition of forage
Homework Answers
i. Flushing of sheeps/goats means providing extra nutrients to them before 3 or 4 weeks of breeding. This increases the ovulation rate, conception rate and embryo implantation rate resulting in the increase in the chance of birth of twins or triplets.
ii. Creep feeding is done to provide nutrition to the nursing lambs and kids. Creep feed is often done in winter months when pasture is not easily availaible. This is done to increase the rate of weaning when there is lot of babies and food supply is short. Those that are creep fed grows faster than those who are not and can be marketted faster.
iii. Botanical composition of forage enhances the quality of milk and improves the composition of milk. It helps in enhancing the flavour, fatty acids composition and Aaroma of the milk.
