The effects of three feeding management were evaluated in the winter months (CN: natural pasture; CNS: natural pasture + supplementation; CNM: improved natural pasture) and three live weight groups (light, medium, heavy) on the subsequent reproductive performance of Brangus heifers with first service to 24/27 mo old. Feeding managements showed differences in the daily weight gain (DWG) during the winter (0.261, 0.376 and 0.679 kg/day) in body weight at the beginning of the reproductive period (302.8, 317.8 and 330.7kg for […]
