We evaluated performance, non-carcass components, and carcass characteristics of crossbred Texel lambs in different categories residual intake gain (RIG). assessed 77 (¼ Pantaneira ¾ Texel) non-castrated animals two study phases. The first phase included 47 with an initial average weight 29.9±5.5 kg, the second 30 22.4±3.3 kg. Dry matter (DMI) daily (ADG) were for 70 days. Animals divided into three groups terms efficiency: efficient (high RIG), intermediate (medium or inefficient (low based...
Maize and forage sorghum crops have a relevant economic importance in Midwest Brazil there is need for more information their intercropping as strategy the farmers to reduce inputs. The objective of this work evaluate if maize effects agronomic traits, bromatological characteristics silage from consortium at different times silo openings, viability all crop systems. This experiment was carried on field with seven treatments, consisting monoculture corn hybrids. Monoculture Agri 001 320, well...
This study aimed to assess the performance, carcass traits, and non-carcass components of feedlot finished Texel crossbred lambs from different residual feed intake classes (RFI). Forty-seven uncastrated male (¾ + ¼ Pantaneira) tested here were 4-month-old with an initial weight 29.9 ± 5.5 kg. The confined for 70 days individual dry matter (DMI) average daily gain (ADG) assessment. diet containing corn silage was provided as roughage, while concentrate consisted grain, soybean meal, urea,...
Due to the multifactorial aspect between morphogenetic, morphological and agronomic characteristics of forage plants, it is necessary look for management options that increase production utilization mass submitted different frequencies defoliation nitrogen levels.The objective this study was verify effects two levels applied in a single dose on structural piatan grass water period.The work carried out agrostological field Faculty Veterinary Medicine Animal Science (UFMS), Campo Grande...
Abstract The disappearance of neutral-detergent fibre (NDF) from six fibrous foods (lucerne hay, NaOH-treated barley straw, olive leaves, paprika meal, soya-bean hulls and sunflower hulls) when incubated in the rumen sheep nylon bags was investigated. Source fibre, time incubation its interaction had a significant ( P < 0·01) effect on NDF degradation. Stepwise regression analysis showed that best single predictor for degradation rate hemicellulose fraction (HEM ndf ). variables selected...
AbstractFood additives were used to improve meat characteristics of Brangus heifers supplemented on pasture daily (0.32% LW). The treatments were: supplement (with no additives); calcareous seaweed flour (Lithothamnium calcareum) added the supplement; vitamin E and organic selenium protected fat a subcutaneous application D seven days before slaughter + association E, one dose slaughter. animals by 109.80±11,71 slaughtered when they reached approximately 337.95±20,56kg LW. experimental...
Animal nutrition needs simple methodologies to be applied under field conditions, providing valid estimates of consumption and digestibility that can used by both farmers animal input industry. Thus, the search for new substances, provided in a practical way, quantified low-cost analytical methodologies, replacing external indicators (chromic oxide as reference) would well accepted scientific community. In this context, aim study was assess supply chorionic esophageal route or mixed diet use...
To maximize economic gain in sheep production systems it is critical to adjust feedlot diets performance while minimizing feed, and especially concentrate, waste. Little information available on ideal for crossbred ewe lambs. Therefore, this study aimed evaluate the of lambs, digestibility diets, with increasing levels concentrate during growing finishing phases. Twenty-four Texel × Pantaneira lambs were confined fed Tifton hay diet (20, 40, 60 80%) individual evaluation dry matter intake...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects injectable trace minerals (ITM) on growth, health, antioxidant enzyme activity, and immune system newborn Boer kids. Newborn kids (n = 125) were assigned one two treatments: injection (0.1 mL 4.5 kg-1) saline or ITM. Injectable had 60, 10, 5, 15 mg mL-1 Zn, Mn, Se, Cu, respectively. Kids evaluated daily for presence diarrhea weighted [...]
