Ruminant Nutrition
Extension Animal Husbandry
Our Extension Ruminant Nutrition
program involves production of cattle, sheep and goats making optimal use
of feed resources. Some of the resources to be considered here are alternative
byproduct feed sources that can be used to provide optimal nutrition. Mineral
supplementation, feed budgeting, body condition scoring, feed testing and
ration balancing are also stressed.
