Economical ration findings from Oslo station
The Oslo agricultural station reports that heavy pre lambing grain feeding is uneconomical for ewes in good condition and does not boost ration efficiency. A small grain allowance of one-third to one-half pound daily is advised with legume hay and corn silage, supporting strong lambs and ample milk. After lambing, increase grain to maintain ewe condition and milk flow, then slightly reduce once lambs learn to eat grain without interference.
