Sheep can eat a wide variety of grasses, shrubs, legumes and cereals, as their small teeth allow them to find food easily. The ideal pastures for the sheep are the soft and low pastures. The deficit in the supply of food, minerals and vitamins, leads to losses of economic nature, product of the following problems: absence or decrease of heat, weight loss, decrease in the growth of young animals, birth of weak offspring and high rates of diseases and deaths. That is why in periods of drought and scarcity of food should be supplemented with concentrates.
