Abstract
The main objectives of this study were to use rye grain in the diet of Turkish sheep as a substitute for barley grain and to understand the biological value of rye in feeding lambs and weight gain. Animals were divided into 3 experimental groups with 3 replicates in each group. Control group (T1) received standard diet with barely grain while groups T2 and T3 fed on diets with substitution of 20 and 30% barely grain by rye grain. The results of the study showed that lambs fed on 20% rye seeds have a significant higher weight gain as a results of better feed intake and feed conversion.
