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.

The efficiency of systems composed of two species of floating aquatic macrophyte (Eichhornia crassipes and Pistia stratiotes) to treat effluents from shrimp culture was evaluated in this research. The effluent originated from a pond populated with Macrobrachium amazonicum. Treatment systems consisted of 12 experimental tanks with aquatic macrophyte and three tanks without plants (control). Water samples were collected from the fresh water supply and before and after passing through the treatment systems. There are no differences in the removal of […]

The objectives of this trial were to determine the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) of crude protein and amino acids for two species of free floating aquatic macrophytes (Eichhornia crassipes and Pistia stratiotes) by Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and to determine the water quality of digestibility aquariums in relation nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations. Tree feeds were developments, containing 0.10% of chromic oxide – III, one being the reference diet (purified) and the others containing 30% of aquatic macrophytes. The Nile tilapias […]
