Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the effects substituting traditional forage fiber sources with cottonseed cake in diet on both quantitative and qualitative characteristics carcass meat Nelore young bulls. Twenty-four steers starting an average weight 377.8 ± 43.5 kg, were individually housed stalls provided individualized feeding over a 112-day confinement period. followed completely randomized design two treatments 12 replications. diets incorporated either whole plant corn...
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to analyze the productive and reproductive performance lambs submitted different forms feed supplementation in growth phase breeding season. Twenty-eight Texel sheep aged between three 12 months were used. distributed two treatments with protein-energy at levels 1.6 2.4% body weight reared on Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu. evaluated beginning experimental period every 28 days until end season, following data observed: final weight, average daily gain...
Abstract Our hypothesis suggests an improvement in carcass and meat quality of pasture‐finished animals by introducing concentrate feed into diets. This study aimed to evaluate the effect different levels protein‐energy supplementation on characteristics Texel lambs raised Brachiaria pastures, compare results with those obtained from confined animals. Thirty 2‐month‐old intact were divided five treatments: pasture mineral supplementation, containing daily supplies 0.8, 1.6, 2.4% BW...
It was aimed to evaluate the use of cottonseed cake (CSC) as a source physically effective neutral detergent fibre (peNDF) replace corn silage (CS) in diet feedlot-finished cattle. The design used completely randomised, with 2 treatments (30% CSC and 30% CS) 12 replications. There interaction between nutrient material retained Penn State Particle Separator. highest concentrations (P = 0.0001) peNDF vitro digestibility (DpeNDF) were for CSC. higher (p < 0.05) dry matter intake (DMI) (NDF)...
Objetivou-se comparar a fibra em detergente ácido (FDAi) indigestível com o óxido crômico para estimar produção de matéria seca fecal e as digestibilidades dos nutrientes dietas bovinos, dois esquemas coletas (2 ou 6 dias). Foram utilizados cinco bovinos da raça Nelore, não-castrados, 165 kg, fistulados no rúmen, abomaso íleo. O delineamento foi blocos casualizados quatro tratamentos períodos coleta. Os consistiram níveis concentrado na dieta (20, 40, 60 80%), usando-se feno capim-Tifton 85...
Objetivou-se avaliar o consumo, a digestibilidade aparente dos nutrientes e degradabilidade in situ da matéria seca (MS), proteína bruta (PB) fibra em detergente neutro (FDN) fenos de capins-coastcross Tifton 85 rações contendo quatro níveis concentrado para animais na fase recria. A produção fecal foi estimada usando-se as fibras (FDNi) ácido (FDAi) indigestíveis como indicadores internos, obtidos após 144 horas incubação ruminal. Utilizaram-se cinco bovinos com oito meses idade 32...
RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar fontes de nitrogênio não-proteico (NNP) combinadas para suplementação novilhos Nelore na recria mantidos em pastagens diferidas. Após o deferimento quatro piquetes Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG4 por 60 dias (20 ha cada) 80 castrados, com peso corporal médio 280,40±19,59kg, foram avaliados durante 120 dias. O manejo adotado foi pastejo rotacionado, mudanças a cada 15 Foram tratamentos diferentes combinações NNP: Ureia + extrusada revestida; extrusada; extrusada. Em...
Five cultivars of Urochloa brizantha (Hochst. ex A.Rich.) R.D. Webster (syn. Brachiaria brizantha) were evaluated for nutritional value and an anti-nutritional factor (protodioscin), in order to determine whether protodioscin content was correlated with reduced feed quality. We cvv. Arapoty, Paiaguas, Xaraes, Marandu Piata grouped the results into summer, autumn, winter spring seasons. Protodioscin chemical composition leaves, vitro digestibility cumulative gas production analysed. Data by...
We hypothesize that lambs fed diets with different lipids sources from oilseeds would similar performance but fatty acids profile of meat superior to those conventional diets. evaluated the effects inclusion on ingestive behaviour, performance, carcass trait and quality in feedlot lambs. Three isonitrogenous (18.31% crude protein) were evaluated, where one diet was standard (control), others two contained soybean cottonseed. Fifteen Texel lambs, weighting 28.5 ± 1.65 kg distributed a...
Urea is a compound widely used as feed additive for ruminants; however, when profusely, it can lead animals to intoxication. Another factor that affects the effectiveness of urea lack synchronization between nitrogen and availability carbohydrates, necessary better development ruminal microbiota. In order circumvent these problems improve efficiency in use, present study developed two new nutritional additives (F16 F17) with different carbohydrate sources. One products (F16) sugarcane...
This study was conducted to examine the forage production potential and quality of Panicum maximum cultivars in a semi-arid environment, four different periods. Six were evaluated: Aruana, Massai, Mombasa, BRS Tamani, Tanzania, Zuri. The experiment laid out randomized-block design with replicates, assessments took place periods (establishment, dry season, transition, rainy season). Forage accumulation rate (FAR), chemical composition, digestibility, vitro rumen degradation kinetics...
Objetivou-se estudar o consumo e as digestibilidades totais parciais de nutrientes em bovinos. Foram utilizados cinco bovinos da raça Nelore, não-castrados, com 165 kg, fistulados no rúmen, abomaso íleo. O delineamento foi blocos casualizados, quatro tratamentos períodos coleta. Os consistiram níveis concentrado na dieta (20, 40, 60 80%). volumoso utilizado feno capim-Tifton 85 (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.). Somente os consumos FDN FDA apresentaram redução linear aumento do nível dieta. MS...
