The study was conducted in the sheep field of (Kosar) company in the Kalk district. It was conducted to determine the effect of adding slow-release urea to the concentrated diet gradually instead of fast-release urea in an attempt to improve the efficiency of feed utilization , improve rumen conditions, and its reflection on the productive performance and some blood biochemical indices of Awassi ewes milk. 24 heads of newly parented ewes aged between 3-4 years distributed to four groups was the sample. It has fed onthe same concentrated diet. The first group treated with 1.5 urea only and the second Treated with 1 % urea and 0.6 % slow-release urea .The third Treated with 0.5 % urea and 1.2 % slow-release urea and the fourth Treated with 1.8 % slow-release urea only .The study took two months, from the birth of ewes until weaning lambs, with a Completely Randomized Design. The total average weight gain for ewes was (8.37, 9.72, 6.74, 5.67) kg, and through the results, it was observed that there is a positive effect of adding Menogen to Awassi ewes feeds in the average daily and total milk production as the fourth treatment significantly (P≤0.05) exceeded the rest of the treatments. The percentage of fat, protein and lactose in milk also has significantly (P≤0.05) exceeded in the fourth treatment than the rest of the treatments, no significant difference was observed between treatments in total blood protein concentration albumin and globulin . But blood urea concentration was significant increase (P≤0.05) in favor of fourth treatment and first one compared to first treatment computationally with third, plasma cholesterol concentration increased significantly (P≤0.05) with increasing level of slow-release urea in third treatment compared to other treatments, triglycerides concentration in blood decreased significantly (P≤0.05) with increasing level of slow-release urea for third treatment and fourth one compared to first one computationally with second. Blood enzyme ALT was significantly increased (P≤0.05) in third treatment followed by fourth treatment and first one compared to second, AST enzyme decreased significantly (P≤0.05) in third treatment compared to first one and second one computationally with fourth.

Abstract. I completed this study in the fields of the Department of Animal Production - College of Agriculture and Forestry - University of Mosul to find out the effect of adding slowrelease urea to the concentrated diet gradually instead of rapidly release urea in an attempt to improve the efficiency of feed utilization and improve rumen conditions and the reflection of that Digestion of compounds and nutrients in rams using 4 Awassi lambs aged between 9-12 months distributed into four treatments fed on a concentrated diet close in energy and protein content and different in its content of urea that It was gradually replaced by slow-release urea (menogen) where the first treatment (1.5% urea only), the second treatment (1% urea and 0.6% slow decomposition urea), the third treatment (0.5% urea and 1.2% slow decomposition urea) and the fourth (1.8% slow decomposition urea only) took the study took four e×perimental periods, each period lasting 19 days (14 days introductory period and 5 days sample collection period) with a cross over design. The digestibility coefficient of dry matter ingested was (74.74, 75.91, 76.14 and 75.87%), and the digestibility coefficient of protein reached (85.67, 86.70, 87.89 and 88.29) % and the coefficient of fiber digestion (29.64, 28.96, 49.53 and 41.43) % respectively for the four coefficients. The results did not indicate significant differences in the pH value of rumen fluid before feeding and two hours after feeding. While the results indicated significant differences (p<0.05) in the concentration of ammonia in the rumen liquid before feeding, where it amounted to 4.95, 6.07, 5.0 and 5.52 mmol / 100 mol, and significant differences were noted (p<0.05) in the number of bacteria before feeding, as it amounted to (45.25, 25.75, 13.25 and 26.50103× / ml), and two hours after feeding amounted to (22.50, 19.75 and 48). 75 and 52,00103× ( / ml and the numbers of protozoa before feeding, as it amounted to (12.00, 4.50, 6.00 and 7.00) 103× / ml and two hours after feeding, as it amounted to (5.25, 7.75, 12.75 and 6.50) 103× / ml rumen fluid respectively and the fourth. Through the results, it was noted that there is a positive effect of adding menogen to the diets of Awassi lambs in digestion and some characteristics of the rumen.
