The objective of this work was to evaluate the average daily dry matter intake (DMI), DMI per 100 kg of live weight (DMIP), DMI per unit of metabolic weight (DMIM), feed: gain (FG) and average daily weight gain (ADG) of beef calves fed with different levels of crude protein in the diet. Forty-seven Braford intact male calves, 66 days old and 76.4 kg of live weight were used. Animals were full fed with oat silage and concentrate (50/50), with 13; […]
