Extract

Manchega ewes grazing sown irrigated pastures during the autumn or spring lambing season were or were not supplemented with up to 1 kg ewe-1 d-1 of on-farm supplements (barley and field beans) until mid-lactation with the aim of assessing the influence of practical concentrate supplementation on milk yields and milk composition. Milk samples were taken at 15-day intervals from seven days after lambing.
