The effects of feeding increasing dietary organic acids on performance and diahrrea incidencefor piglets from 21 to 49 days old were evaluated. The treatments were constituted of a basal diet and three groups supplemented with 0.78, 0.84 and 0.90% of organic acids in the 21 to 35 days period and 0.59, 0.63 and 0.66% in the 36 to 49 days period, basedoin lactic acid. Average daily feed intake (ADFI), average daily weight gain (ADWG), feed:gain ratio (F/G) and diarrhea scores […]

The work was carried out to evaluate the voluntary intake, feed conversion and weight gain of bovines in feedlot, fed with elephantgrass silage (Penisetum purpereum, Schum.) with and without acipin associated with two protein sources, and to evaluate also the digestibility of dry matter of elephantgrass silage. The experimental feedlot was conducted during 167 days, with 28 steers, average 24 months old and initial average live weight of 310 kg. Four rations (T1: silage with acipin and urea; T2: silage […]
