Two experiments were carried out to evaluate the nutritional utilization of soybean hulls for growing horses. In the digestibility assay, four colts, averaging 11 months of age and 350±26kg, were used to determine the nutritional value of diets with soybean hulls. The experimental design was square latine (4 x 4). Four diets were used, one as a reference and three as test diets, where the soybean hulls replaced 33.3, 66.6 and 100% of the Tifton 85 hay of the reference […]

The objective of this experimental work was to evaluate the influence of different levels of sorghum grain, as a source of starch, on the plasma parameters of sheep fed elephant grass hay (Pennisetum purpureum Schum). Sorghum grain was included in the diet at four levels: 0, 15, 30 e 45%. Twelve castrated male sheep were assigned to four treatments with three replicates. Six samples of blood per animal were collected just before the morning feeding (zero hour) and after 1, […]
