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 objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of some environmental factors on days open (DO) and days dry (DD), as well as to estimate genetic parameters for these traits in Holstein breed cows. A total of 6,485 records of DO and DD were used. The database were analyzed using a model that included the fixed effects of dairy group farmers, calving year, calving season, production level (PL), genetic group (GG), calving age class (CA) and the first […]

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of previous and present days open and previous dry days period fitted simultaneously as fixed effects using a sire model for 305-day milk production, still containing the fixed effects of herd-year-season, genetic group, age of cow and the random effects of sire and cow. An additive relationship matrix that included the bull, its sire and its mother was used. The same model with the exclusion of the age of cow […]
