Performance and parasite control of different genetic groups of lambs finished in irrigated pasture

Abstract: The aim of this study was to compare the following four genetic groups of hair sheep: Santa Inês (SI), Morada Nova (MN), Brazilian Somali (BS), and the F1 ½Dorper x ½Morada Nova crossbreed on traits related to growth and parasitic infection. Thirty-three male lambs of the same age and of simple birth, under the same pre-weaning management conditions were used in the experiment. After weaning the animals were housed in a completely randomized design in paddocks made of Panicum maximum cv. Tanzania. Along the co… Show more

“…This behavior was observed in the Morada Nova lambs, evidenced by the low percentage of animals with PCV ≤ 24%, even when the FEC values were high. Fernandes Júnior et al (2015) found similar results when comparing Morada Nova, Santa Inês and Brazilian Somalis lambs. Morada Nova lambs stood out, presenting Famacha score below 3 and PCV above 23%, even with higher FEC values.…”
