*INTRODUCTION TO CATTLE AND RAMS FATTENING*

Fattening of animals especially bulls and rams being the best method of getting quick return on investment and also makes availability of animal proteins to be in abundance. It has good advantages over the extensive means of cattle and goats rearing because fattening of bulls and rams in a feedlot is one of the best options of increasing animal protein supply. Meat production from cattle and sheep and even goats in Nigeria is almost entirely extensive with low input. This traditional method of domestic meat animal production results in low productivity due to the fact that animals receive the bulk of their nutrition from overgrazed ranges which are poor in quality. Furthermore the size of such ranges is declining due to their use for industries including new agricultural development projects devoted to especially crop production. The traditional system of meat animal production cannot thus be expected to meet the future demand for beef and mutton in particular and animal protein in general. As an economic way of feeding young cattle and sheep whereby the yield of edible carcass is increased by 30-40 percent during a short period fattening offers a rapid means for enhancing productivity. Thus fattening has a role to play in a situation where range cattle are so under-nourished that a short period on high level of nutrition is necessary to increase their productivity and to prepare them for market.

The fattening system therefore is complimentary to the existing system of raising animals on range and not one of substitution of a new technology for an existing one. The reason why I am doing this is to enlighten us about how to start bull and ram fattening and create awareness about this profitable business, because we are at the beginning of harmattan and one can get stocks at cheaper price now, you can invest your money against next year Ileya festival and other festivals and ceremonies around you, using feeding and management options that can be applied at the level of large and small scale producers.

Discussion will be focused on housing, purchase of animals, feeds and feeding and management as well as marketing of your rams. Follow the below link to continue reading
