The effects of (i) frequency of herbage allocation and (ii) herbage allowance on ewe and subsequent lamb performance, when autumn-saved (extended grazed, deferred grazed) pasture is grazed (between 28 Nov and 30 Jan) by spring lambing ewes during mid

Maternal nutrition during pregnancy is a major environmental influence on foetal development with consequent effects on postnatal performance. We hypothesised that the level of intake of digestible undegraded protein (DUP) by the dam in late pregnanc
