ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of beef cattle with two levels of energy-protein supplementation of low-consumption on African Bermudagrass pasture, overseeded in winter with oat and ryegrass, with or without irrigation. Twenty-four castrated Angus steers (11 months old and had an initial average of 220 kg body weight (BW)) were used in experimental area of 3.6 ha. The experiment was completely randomized in a 2×2 factorial design, with three replicates. The evaluation period was […]

The objective of this study was to evaluate milk yield and composition, dry matter intake, and stocking rate in pastures with tanzania grass (Panicum maximum cv. Tanzânia), star grass (Cynodon nlemfuensis cv. Estrela-Africana), and marandu grass (Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu). The grasses were managed in a rotational grazing system with Holstein x Zebu crossbreed cows, with a 30-day resting period and three days of paddock occupation. The pastures were fertilized with 1,000 kg/ha/year using the 20:05:20 (NPK) formula, split in […]

The study was undertaken in Coronel Pacheco – MG (National Dairy Cattle Reserch Center of the Brazilian Agricultural Corporation – EMBRAPA), to evaluate, under grazing conditions, the Cynodon nlenfuensis, Vanderyst and three cultivars of Cynodon dactylon, L. Pers. (Florona, Florakirk, Florico), fertilized with either 250:200 or 500:400 kg/ha/year of N:K2O. The experimental design was a randomized blocks, in split-plot, and three replications. No significant difference on dry matter yield between the two rates of N/K2O were found. In both N:K2O […]
