The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

The oats (Avena strigosa Schreb.) and ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) sodseeding in pasture of coastcross (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) was compared to oats and ryegrass in extreme tillage, as establishment methods of winter pastures under rotational stocking with lactating Holstein dairy cows. The total DM production (DMP), pre-grazed herbage mass, residue (RES), forage losses (FL), daily DM accumulation rate (DAR), stocking rate (SR), forage on offer (FO) and leaf blade biomass (LBB) were evaluated. For botanical composition, oats, ryegrass and […]

Many Cynodon dactylon cultivars have been cultivated in Rio Grande do Sul state to be used as pasture or hay to feed dairy cattle. Quick determination of the nutritional value of these forages would be valuable for management and diet planning. This work had the objective to develop calibration curves for analysis of the nutritional value of four Cynodon cultivars (Tifton 68, Tifton 85, Florakirk, Coastcross), using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS). A total of 129 fresh samples of green […]
