The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of dry corn grain or high moisture corn and calcium salts of fat acids on the performance and carcass traits of feedlot fed Nellore steers on finishing phase. Forty eight animals with 431 ± 29.8kg of initial mean body weight were fed during 70 days, with one of the four diets: MGS – basal diet containing corn silage (40%), dry corn grain (48.4%), soybean meal (7.6%), urea, amonium sulphate, mineral […]
