Performance, plasmatic parameters and carcass traits of 24 3/4 Simmental 1/4 Nellore steers with 370 kg initial average weight was evaluated. The experimental diets were composed by corn silage (55%) and concentrate with sunflower meal as protein source and ground corn as energy source (MI). Ground corn was partially substituted by soybean hulls (CS) or by corn meal (FGM). The period of intake and average weight gain evaluation was 49 days. Blood samples were collected to measure plasmatic parameters: glucose, […]
