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.

This experiment was conducted to estimate DM digestibility, fecal output, and DM intake of sheep fed a diet containing oat hay and concentrate. Treatments consisted of two methods of administration of the external marker alkane (C32): equilibrium and pulse dose. In the equilibrium treatment, animals received one daily pellet of cellulose containing 100 mg of C32 during eight days (four days for reach steady state conditions and five days for sample collection). Animals in the pulse dose treatment received only […]

The objective of this study was to evaluate the fitness capacity of a non-linear model in the process parameter estimation of the solid transit kinetics of bovine at pasture, using different sequences of fecal sampling. Five F1 Limousin X Nellore steers, fistulated in esophagus and rumen on Brachiaria decumbens grazing and concentrate supplemented during the rainy season period were used. The experiment was developed in three experimental periods; in a randomized completely blocks design. Chromium mordant, produced from extrusa samples, […]
