Phytogenics: A tool to improve efficiency in lamb feedlots

For successful lamb feed lotting, it is essential to have a basic understanding of the lamb's digestive system. A major issue is that the lamb's rumen is designed to act as a fermentation vat in which roughage (grass, straw, etc.) is broken down by microbes into volatile fatty acids, ammonia, and methane. This system benefits both the lamb and the…
