Weaning Age of Lambs Creep-Fed While Grazing on Marandu Pasture
Journal of Agricultural Studies, 2019 This study aimed to examine the weaning age (60 and 90 days) of lambs supplemented while grazing on Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu pasture. Production performance, incidence of worm infections, intoxication, and production cost of lambs, beside that body

Effect of temporary weaning and creep feeding on calf growth and the reproductive efficiency of their Hereford dams [PDF]
Animal Bioscience, 2022 Objective The objective was to test if creep feeding (CF) improves the average daily gain (ADG) and weaning weight of calves submitted to temporary weaning (TW) and if the combination of CF and TW improves conception and pregnancy rates of cows.

Summer Legumes for Creep Grazing in Cow-Calf Production on Bermudagrass Pastures
Journal of Agricultural Science, 2015 The extensive cow-calf industry in the Gulf Coast Region of the southeastern USA is based on pastures of warm-season perennial grasses, which often provide insufficient forage availability and/or nutritive value in late summer.

Limit versus full creep-feeding of a high protein supplement to calves grazing late summer bluestem
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, 1989 Limit creep-feeding a 36% protein supplement (avg. salt concentration = 7.9%) was compared with unlimited consumption of the same supplement without salt (full creep-feeding) and with no supplementation.

Management Strategies for Lamb Production on Pasture-Based Systems in Subtropical Regions: A Review
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020 Sheep production on pasture plays an important role in subtropical climates around the world, with great economic and environmental relevance to those regions. However, this production is much lower than its true potential in subtropical regions, largely
