Effect of housing and nutritional interventions during winter on wool attributes of Corriedale sheep.

There are several factors that can directly or indirectly influence wool quality and quantity in sheep, the main elements being genetic and environmental factors. An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of different management/housing interventions during winter on wool quality and yield in Corriedale ewes. Forty healthy pregnant ewes were selected and divided into four groups (G, G, G, G) based on their body weight and parity.
