Carrying Prime Lambs Through Summer, R J. Suiter
Carrying Prime Lambs Through Summer, R J. Suiter
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

This report presents the results of the first year of a trial being conducted at Chapman Research Station to examine some of the problems associated with carrying lambs through the summer for later marketing.
