Sheep and Goat Fattening Program

The document discusses selection, procurement, and preparation of animals for fattening. It describes quarantine procedures, housing and feeding systems, feeding schedules, and performance metrics. Key points include selecting healthy animals of appropriate age and breed, vaccinating and deworming during quarantine, housing in shelters with adequate space and drainage, and feeding high-energy concentrates along with roughages to achieve target weight gains over 60-90 days of fattening. Animal weights and feed intake are recorded regularly to evaluate performance.

FEEDS AND FEEDING SYETEMS

FEEDING SCHEDULE FOR FATTENING

ANIMAL PERFORMANCE AND RECORD KEEPING


 Requirement of mutton is increasing day by day

 Mutton Produced 782.1 Th Ton

 To meet the high demand fattening is done to get mutton in a


short time with high marbling and increased palatability

 Fattening also done before certain events such as Eid-ul-Fitr


and Eidul- Azha
 Healthy & alert

 Weight of animal

 Condition of the Animal

 Local breed

 Age of the Animal

 Castration
7-10 days

Identification

Vaccination

ET,PPR,FMD,Pleuropneumonia

Deworming

Dipping
Housing

Subsistence

Animals are tied during the day and put into a protective
shelter at night

Extensive

The flock/herd grazes over large areas of marginal land

Intensive

The animals are confined to yards and shelters and feed is


brought to the flock
Housing

 3×4 F
 Avoid over crowding
 Slatted floors
 Concrete floors
 Dry regions
 Shade is provided
 Drinking water for animals
 Proper drainage system
Adaption Period

Timing the start of animal on feed is critical

when started on feed, brought gradually from a high


roughage-low concentrate to a high concentrate-low
roughage ration over several weeks.

Series of rations that are changed every two to three days to


enable Animal to adapt to a high-concentrate ration within
15 to 20 days.

 Best System for both spp. Is grazing with supplement
feeding of high energy concentrate ration
 Consume 2 percent of their body weight dry matter
from the grazing
 1.5-2.0 percent body weight from supplement
concentrate
 Coccidiosis, ET, Acidosis and foot rot

 Fed on total mixed ration having dry roughages and


concentrate with little supplemented green fodder
 Concentrate ration +wheat straw in 60:40 ratio
 CP=15% ,TDN= 65%
 Conserve the energy
 Feed additives
 Green fodder ……………. vitamin
 Concentrates are those feeds which are low in fibre and high in energy
And used for feedlot fattening

 Maize, Barley, Oats, Sorghum, Bajra, Grams, beet pulp/beet


molasses and cane molasses……………….Energy
 High digestible carbohydrates and have low content of
indigestible fibre
 Protein content of cereals 8-10% and TDN 70-80%
 Cottonseed Cake And Meal, Rapeseed Cake and Meal, Corn
Gluten Feed and Meal, Sunflower Meal, Linseed Meal, Sesame
Cake………………..Protein
 Good quality feedstuff, which are palatable free from
fungus growth and any contaminations
 Roughages are harvested at proper stage
 Early hour of the day 50% of the daily requirement of the
concentrate i.e. 1%
 Grazing for few hours so that animals can consume 2%
of their body weight green fodder
 1% of the body weight of the concentrate ration is offered
in the evening in the shed
In TMR system
The fodder along with dry and/or green fodder is offered
twice a day along with concentrate ration

Free Access To Water


The following data is recorded to evaluate
the performance of the animals
 Initial body weight at zero day of each
animals
 Fortnightly body weight during the period
of fattening of each
 Average daily total feed offered
 Average daily fodder offered
 Date and dose of deworming and
vaccination and health record of animals
