Efficient feed utilization is crucial in sheep farming. By ensuring that sheep and lambs make optimal use of the available feed, production per sheep and lamb can be maximized, resulting in a higher total yield. This not only improves financial performance, but also contributes to the sustainability of the sector by reducing feed waste and using natural resources such as land and water more efficiently. In addition, good feed utilization can improve the health and welfare of the sheep and lambs, resulting in a longer lifespan. In short, feed utilization is a key factor for successful and sustainable sheep farming.
