Effects of diets containing varying metabolize energy on serum progesterone concentration of lactating Dorper ewes
Energy deficiency in the diet may delay the resumption of ovarian post-partum activities. Hence, this study aims to determine the effects of varying metabolize energy (ME) level in the diet of lactating Dorper ewes on blood serum progesterone. This study was conducted at Agropolitan Besut-Setiu, Ter...
