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.

With the objective of evaluating increasing levels of calcium in diets supplemented with the enzyme phytase for chickens from 1 to 21 days of age, an experiment was conducted using 600 1-d old Hubbard-MPK strain chicks. The broilers were allotted to a completely randomized design, factorial arrangement five x two (levels of calcium x sexes), three replicates and 20 birds per plot. The basal ration with 0.54% total phosphorus and 600 units of phytase/kg, was formulated to meet the nutritional […]

The decomposition dynamics and mineralization of nitrogen of fourteen residues of grasses and legumes forages varying in origin and collecting places were evaluated. Seven species were selected (B. humidicola, B. brizantha, A.pintoi, D.ovalifolium, L.leucocephala, S. guianensis and C. pubescens), based on qualitative characteristics and using the distance medium Euclidian as dissimilarities measure and then placed in erlenmeyers vases in the laboratory in an entirely randomized fashion. Decomposition data were analyzed using a split-splot design with residues in the main plot […]
