The effect of feeding increasing levels of Leucaena leucocephala leaf hay on the potential fertility and feed intake of male highland sheep maintained on roughage diet was studied. In treatment 1 (NS), animals received only chickpea haulm. Treatments 2 (L100), 3 (L200) and 4 (L300) consisted of 1...

The experiment was conducted at Debre Zeit Research Station of the International Livestock Research Institute in Ethiopia for 126 days. Fifty-four male Menz sheep with initial live weight (LW) of 15.7+/-0.32 kg (mean+/-S.D.) were blocked on initial LW and randomly assigned to one of the nine tr...
