An experiment was carried out at the Sheep Production Sector of Federal University of Lavras to study the allometric growth of bone, muscular and fat tissues of commercial joints in lambs. Twenty-four Santa Ines lambs were used. The animals were kept confined in individual pens and fed ad libitum. The animals were slaughtered when they reached the target live weight of 15, 25, 35 and 45 kg. After the carcass had been dressed and chilled, the commercial joints were obtained […]

The objectives of this trial were to study the effect of supplementation with concentrate on elephant grass pasture rotationally managed on milk yield and composition and live weight changes of crossbred Holstein x Zebu cows. The treatments were: no concentrate (NC) and 2 kg concentrate/cow/day (WC). The experiment was carried out during the rainy season. The area was divided in 44 paddocks of 606 m2 each, with 22 for each treatment, with two areas replication of 11 paddocks each. Twelve […]
