A feeding experiment was carried out in which adult ewes of the Ethiopian Highland Menz breed grazed on meadow pasture were supplemented with urea-molasses block and/or Noug cake. There was low consumption of urea-molasses block (67g/d) and its contribution to total nitrogen requirements was mini...

In a trial in Ethiopia from Mar. 1985 to Feb. 1986, 160 adult ewes of the Ethiopian Highland Menz breed were grazed on meadow pasture, unsupplemented or supplemented with urea-molasses blocks and/or noug cake (from a local oilseed, Guizotia abyssinica). Consumption of urea-molasses was low, avera...
