This study aimed to evaluate four sources of phosphorus for cattle grazing African Bermudagrass (Cynodon nlemfuesis Vanderyst) pasture and to compare them considering weight performance and physiological parameters. It was used a complete random experimental design, with 32 crossbred steers (Bos indicus x Bos Taurus) at average initial weight of 347 kg randomly distributed in four groups, each one receiving mineral supplement formulated with dicalcium phosphate, supertriple phosphate, monoammonium phosphate or Araxá rock phosphate, as sources of phosphorus. Weight gain […]
