Ewe Feeding in Early and Mid-pregnancy
Key points
- Start rationing feed by lengthening ewe grazing rotation. Feeding low quality supplements may help achieve this.
- Feed well-conditioned ewes at maintenance at about 1.1-1.2 kg DM/day intake per head for a 60-65 kg ewe at condition score 3.
- Preferentially feed light, poorly-conditioned ewes at about 1.3-1.5 kg DM/day intake per head.
