Growth Promotants For Sheep Studied A recent trial conducted at The Pennsylvania State University by L 1.. Wilson, Professor of Animal Science and J. Wiggins, Graduate Assistant, indicate that stilbestrol (DES) and zcranol promoted about the same increase in lamb growth rate. However, zeranol had no effect on carcass composition while DES increased the fat cover. The rising costs of food production make it necessary to find methods to increase the amount of meat per pound of feed. Since it was first approved for use in 1955, DES has been used widely to increase feed ef ficiency and promote gains in both beef cattle and sheep. It is possible that DES may again be removed from use in livestock production and thus other growth promotants are being evaluated and compared to HAY & STRAW SALE EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 12 NOON PAULZ.

One of these newer products, zeranol, appears to promote growth and feed efficiency about the same as DES, but functions dif ferently in the animal's body. The research results in dicated that increasing the level of :cranol implantation above the recommended level may increase gains and provide greater feed ef ficiency than the normal dosage. These results also indicate that even at eight times the normal level, carcass and muscle com position were not affected. A microscopic analysts of certain tissues indicates there arc some estrogenic effects on reproductive tissues at extremely high dose levels. However, studies at other Universities indicate that there is very little chance of zeranol retention in body tissues or of undesirable effects of any kind when recommended 12- mg implants were used. These results also indicate that certain endocrine glands probably are involved in the growth promotion and feed efficiency.
