This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a biostimulant on the morphogenesis, structure, productivity, and chemical composition of Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu, managed under two nitrogen fertilization levels. Collections were carried out during the dry (June to September) and the rainy season (September to April). The experimental area was divided into 48 plots of 8 m2 each, using a randomized block desig...
Objetivou-se, com este trabalho, avaliar quatro níveis de substituição do milho (0; 33; 67 e 100%) pelo farelo de palma forrageira sobre o desempenho de ovinos em crescimento terminados em confinamento. Vinte carneiros mestiços Santa Inês foram distribuídos em delineamento em blocos ao acaso, com quatro tratamentos (níveis de substituição do milho pelo farelo de palma) e cinco repetições. Além do milho e/ou far...
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of replacement of soybean meal (SBM) with soybean meal treated with tannin (SBMT) on the intake, digestibility, performance and characteristics of the carcasses of young cattle fed a high-concentrate diet. Forty- two Nellore bulls with body weight of 244.5 ± 4.99 kg were used. Diets had the inclusion of 7.5% SBM, with a proportion of that SBM (0, 33, 66 or 100%) replaced...
Objetivou-se comparar a qualidade físico-química do leite, em diferentes linhas de coleta, destinado ao beneficiamento, oriundas de várias propriedades rurais. O pool das amostras de leite foi formado por pequenos (até 100 L/dia), médios (101 a 300 L/dia) ou grandes (301 a 800 L/dia) produtores de leite. O leite foi coletado duas vezes por semana, durante trê...
Exposure to environmental contaminants, temperature elevation or obtaining milk inappropriately may compromise the quality of final product. The objective of this research was to evaluate the physicochemical quality of fluid milk retailed in Parauapebas, State of Para. Samples of raw and pasteurized milk were collected every week for three months – a total of 60 samples of raw milk and 12 samples of paste...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the intake behavior of Moxotó and Canindé breed goats when offered a diet at two levels of intake. Twenty-four noncastrated goats (12 Moxotó and 12 Canindé) were used, with an average age of four months and an initial average weight of 15 kg. The goats were housed in individual pens, distributed using a completely randomized design, in a 2x2 factorial arrangement (two breed...
