The effect of type of birth\nwas significant for both milk production and lactation period. The birth of\nsingle lambs surpassed the twin birth, and the interaction between the sex and\nthe birth type had no significant effect on lactation period and milk\nproduction. The results also showed non-significant effect of the age of the\nsheep and the parity of lambing, on milk production and lactation period. The\nlambing interval had a significant effect on lactation period, while it had no\neffect on milk production. The weight of the ewe at birth had a significant\neffect on the production of milk and did not have any significant effect on\nlactation period, and the month of birth had a significant effect on the length\nof lactation period and not significant on the production of milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key words<\/strong>: Milk production, Lactation period, Awassi sheep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full Paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/v7n1p5.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rehaf Ibrahim Al-Shaar*(1) Ali Deeb(1) and Abd Al-Naser AL-Omar(2) (1).
