ABSTRACT Ruminants in late gestation and lactation have high energy requirements, which can be effectively met with diets that include chromium protected fat. This study aimed to compare the effects of propionate rumen-protected fat supplementation diet ewes evaluate their impact on performance, metabolism, carcass, meat quality offspring. The population consisted 25 mixed-breed ewes, aged 3 ± 1 years, a body weight (BW) 57 10 kg, single gestation. All gave birth males. experimental design...
The objective of this work was to analyze the interrelations among weights and carcass measures longissimus lumborum muscle thickness area, sternum tissue thickness, measured directly on by ultrasound scan. Measures were taken live animals after slaughter develop models multiple linear regression, estimate composition shoulder blade, from selected variables in 89 kids both genders five breed groups, raised feedlot system. considered relevant not redundant information they carry, for common...
Bos taurus indicus temperament is variable and affects beef tenderization. Our objective was to investigate performance of non–castrated Nellore identify groups based on Longissimus lumborum (LL) pH decline as well characteristics produced by those groups. We investigated 94 animals with a subset carcasses (n = 24) selected LL at 24 h postmortem (pm) represent two groups: resistant (> 5.8 called pH–Res; n 10) normal (< 5.7 pH–Nor; 14). Steaks were fabricated from the muscle randomly assigned...
Sixty goats (20 Alpine, 18 Anglo-Nubian, and 22 crossbred Boer), with average body weight 49.33 ± 1.41 kg, were raised on Panicum maximum cv. Tobiatã pasture two different levels of concentrate supplementation, 300 (SL30) 600 g kg-1 (SL60) the daily requirements, evaluated from pre-mating season until an 110 days lactation. Milk controls performed every 14 days. The following milk production curve parameters estimated: time to reach peak (TP), (PP) during first lactation (MP). components...
SUMMARY Meat tenderness is a major attribute for consumers worldwide. However, few studies investigate the importance of lamb meat Brazilian consumers. This study assessed consumers’ evaluation with high shear forces. Eight lambs were slaughtered at 32.5±2.5kg live weight and 5 to 6 months age. The Longissimus dorsi muscle from both half carcasses was randomly assigned four different postmortem processes: Tough (TM), obtained by cold shortening, Fresh (FM), Aging 3 (A3) 7 (A7) days ....
Pasture-based production systems and alternative foods can be used to reduce goat milk costs by around 20%.The objective of this study was examine the effect substituting corn soybean meal concentrate with cassava chips alfalfa, respectively, on feed intake, fermentation, rumen degradability parameters adult, dry, empty, rumen-cannulated Saanen goats reared in a feedlot.The experiment conducted as Latin square design which following diets were tested: ground meal; alfalfa; alfalfa.The...
The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effect 2 feeding systems and 5 breeding groups on growth performance, biometric features, stomach morphology feedlot goat kids. utilized gender as a randomized blocking factor in × factorial scheme. study goats were from Alpine, Anglo-Nubian, 1/2 Boer x 3/4 7/8 Alpine breeds. Half fed an experimental diet, whereas other half given same diet supplemented with 1.5 L milk daily. kids slaughtered after they attained 30 kg body weight. showed...
The goal was to evaluate if feeding systems with or without milk breed groups can improve carcass characteristics, the proportion of tissues and meat tenderness feedlot goat kids. Were used 56 animals from five different fed by experimental diet according treatment., 1,5 L milk/animal/day. kid goats were slaughtered at 30 kg live weight, conformation amount fat determined subjectively visual assessment. Morphometric measurements cut yields performed. Longissimus lumborum muscle separated...

Abstract The energy required during gestation in sheep is high, and when restricted, fetal development may be affected; thus, knowledge of its deficit needs to better understood. objective was evaluate different levels sources the diet their influence on viscera carcass yield offspring. experiment carried out at Faculty Animal Science Food Engineering USP, Brazil, using 56 pregnant ewes, Dorper Santa Ines breeds, randomly distributed four treatments: control group (fed according 2007 NRC...
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance, under confinement conditions, lambs born from ewes fed different energy levels during final gestation and lactation period. Seventy-one were distributed in two treatments according metabolizable (ME) diet: CTL = NRC (2007) recommendations for each stage (gestation lactation); PLUS plus 10% per kilogram dry matter. total ME intake group 4 4.2 Mcal/day end lactation, respectively, Plus group, 4.8 5 Mcal/day.
