Implementing advanced nutritional management in the Welsh sheep industry

The objective of the project is to utilise an intelligent and progressive approach to nutritional planning in breeding ewes.  

Blood, liver and forage samples will be used in conjunction to understand the nutrient availability and utilisation by ewes on 12 farms. Nutritional management advice will be formulated using this data and the response monitored.  

The group hope to utilise this established technique within the Welsh sheep industry to help strengthen it for the future.
