ABSTRACT We investigated the impact of weaning at 30, 75, and 180 days of age on performance, body measurements, and rumen development (using the β-hydroxybutyrate biomarker) of beef calves until 190 days of age. A total of 64 Brangus calves were assigned to three treatments: hyper-early (W30), weaned at 32±0.89 days of age (n = 22, 10 males and 12 females); early (W75), weaned at 77±0.95 days of age (n = 20, 12 males and eight females); and conventional (W180), […]

During pre and post calving periods, it was evaluated the influence of the following forage systems on reproductive performance of primiparous cows: natural pasture during pre and post-calving periods; natural pastures during pre-calving period and improved pastures during post-calving period; improved pastures during pre-calving and natural pasture during post-calving; improved pasture during pre- and post-calving periods. The lowest body weights and body condition scores were observed on cows kept on natural pastures pre-calving (384.3 kg and 3.31; 391.4 kg and […]

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different levels of degradable intake protein (DIP) diets during the feedlot-growing phase, on performance, in vivo growth parameters measured by ultrasound and on carcass traits and meat quality of young bulls. Sixty Brangus calves, 8 months old, averaging 243,2 kg, were submitted to three treatments in growing (Phase 1) and finishing (Phase 2) phases: T1 – 69% DIP in Phases 1 and 2; T2 – 77% DIP in Phase […]
