Effect of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rBST) on the performance of steers fed diets with different forages was evaluated. Forty crossbred steers, with average 360.2 kg LW and 30 months of age, were used. The animals were fed diets containing different forages (corn silage, sugarcane, corn silage + sugarcane and hydrolyzed sugarcane bagasse), and received an application of 320 mg rBST at every 28 days and were weighed at every 14 days during an experimental period of 84 days. The weight […]
