Effect of Diet Neutral Detergent Fibre Content on Dry Matter Intake, Nutrient Digestibility, Growth Efficiency and Carcass Characteristics of Finishing South African Mutton Merino Wether Lambs

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Feeding South African Mutton Merino lambs low‐NDF lucerne hay diets improved nutrient digestibility, energy utilisation, growth efficiency, and carcass quality. Despite lower intake at the lowest NDF level, fibre digestibility and feed conversion improved, indicating that highly digestible, low‐NDF finishing diets enhance lamb growth and carcass traits.

Moringa stenopetala Leaves and Cafeteria Leftover as Nonconventional Supplements in the Diets of Local Gamo Sheep: Nutrient Utilization, Growth Performance and Economic Efficiency

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
For smallholders having plenty of cafeteria leftovers and M. stenopetala leaves, blended feeding of the ingredients is more profitable than their exclusive feeding. Provided that they are comparably available, sole supplementation of M. stenopetala is more advantageous and profitable than sole supplementation of cafeteria leftovers.
