ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effects of total replacement of soybean meal and partial replacement of ground corn with licuri cake (LC) in the diet of young Nellore bulls on feed intake, ingestive behavior, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen balance, microbial protein synthesis, animal performance, carcass traits and economic efficiency, including marginal costs and returns. Thirty-two 16-month-old Nellore bulls (346 ± 32.5 kg body weight) were individually evaluated in a completely randomized experimental design with four treatments (0, 7, 14, […]
