ABSTRACT An experiment was conducted aiming to evaluate the effect of different levels of crude protein, based on the ideal protein concept and two rearing systems, on productive performance of brown laying hens. A total of 400 Hisex Brown laying hens between 30 and 45 weeks of age were distributed in a completely randomized design and a 2×4 factorial arrangement, with main effects including two rearing systems (cage and floor) and levels of crude protein (140, 150, 160, and 180 […]

The present study evaluated the influence of genotype and rearing system on the performance of alternative lines of broiler chickens. Two experimental lines (Caipirinha and 7P) and two commercial lines (Label Rouge and Paraíso Pedrês) were reared under intensive or semi-intensive (access to the pasture area after 21 d of age) in an experiment with eight treatments, four replicates and 35 birds per experimental unit. Corn-soybean meal based feed and water were offered ad libtum in the pen area only, […]
