Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Report Description
Management is probably the one most important factor in a successful sheep operation. The ability to exercise control over the lambing period through induced or planned parturition would give the producer another managmenet tool with which to work. Possible benefits of induced parturition include (1) a concentration of labor resources, (2) maximum usage of lambing facilities, (3) shortening of gestation for multiple lambing systems, (4) reducing birth weights of lambs and (5) clean up of late lambing ewes. Current research at South Dakota State University is designed to study the effect of certain hormones in relation to induced parturition.
