Sixteen adult sheep (ten females, six males obtained from a closed flock at National Animal Disease Center, Ames, IA) were experimentally infected with bovine respiratory syncytial virus strain 375 (BRSV), and lung tissues were stained for viral antigen. Two infected sheep were euthanatized at each of the following post-inoculation times: 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours. Lung, nasal turbinates, trachea, right cranial bronchial and mediastinal lymph nodes, liver, and spleen were collected for histologic evaluation. An indirect immunoperoxidase technique was performed on routine paraffin-embedded sections of lung tissue, trachea, turbinates, and bronchial and mediastinal lymph nodes …

Lupin Stubbles : Getting The Best With Weaner Sheep, Keith Croker, Colin Mcdonald, Jeremy Allen

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Sweet lupins are now grown on about a million hectares in Western Australia each year. If half of the State's seven million weaners were grazed as recommended on half of the lupin stubbles, it could generate about $15 million from reduced supplementary feeding, greater wool production and other advantages. But correct management is important, particularly knowing when to take weaners out. Research by the Department over the last five years is now indicating how this should be done.
