Description
Summary:The studies made on sheep specialized on milk production watched to establishfodder ratios and the technology of foddering the sheep in the second milkingperiod and preparation for coupling. The witness lot was fed with green mass bygrazing, at the 2nd lot it was used the pasture + 200 g concentratedfodders/animal/day, and at the 3rd lot, the pasture + 400 g fodders/animal/day.The consumption of dry substance/animal/day was similar at the 1st and 2nd lots,that of 1.57-1.51 kg, and at the 3rd lot of 1.68 kg, bigger with 7-11% beside theother two lots. The intensity and synchronization of the heat periods were with 32-61% better in the case of the sheep that were supplementary fed. Thesupplementation of grazing with concentrated fodders had a positive influenceupon the body weight of the sheep, at the 3rd lot the body weight of the sheep inthe beginning of coupling being superior with 11.40% comparatively to the weightat lambs’ weaning. The average milk production per lactation was of 138.9-153.8liters, being bigger with 10.7% at the 2nd and 3rd lots, comparatively to the 1st lot.The chemical composition of milk had a content of dry substance of 18.95-19.05%,6.31-6.41% proteins and 6.99-7.24% fats.
