The Growth and Composition of Wool V. Stimulation of Wool Growth by the Abomasal Administration of Varying Amounts of Casein

In a series of five experiments, varying amounts of casein (60~200 gjday) were given to sheep, in the diet or via the abomasum, as supplements to various diets at several levels of intake (400~1200 gjday). Effects on growth rate and sulphur content of wool and on body weight were investigated.
