A randomised complete block design was used to study ewe lamb’s preference between Lp and Bv during morning and afternoon grazing sessions in winter, spring, and summer by assessing the animal behaviour and pasture morphological and chemical attributes. Ewe lambs showed a higher preference for Lp in the afternoon in winter (P 0.05). In winter, Bv, relative to Lp, had both greater ADF and NDF (P |
