Effects of age and nutritional status at mating on the reproductive and productive traits in Suffolk sheep kept under permanent outdoor management system
Original language description
This study examined the variability of reproductive and productive traits in Suffolk sheep with regard to the dams age or the nutritional status of sheep at mating under a year round outdoor management. Data were collected across a 3 year monitoring period. The results of the present study confirmed the positive influence of ewe LW at mating on subsequent reproductive and productive traits. The mating period is an appropriate time for monitoring the LW in a permanent outdoor management system. Culling Suffolk ewes with mature LW at mating below 70 kg with a combination of selecting ewe lambs of highweight mothers could improve both reproductive and productive traits. Similarly, overfat ewes should be eliminated just before next reproduction, because of their decreased subsequent reproductive and productive traits.
