“…The average intake of the supplemented lambs was 162.25 g/day, and the lambs fed only with the MM consumed 88.11 g/day of CP per day, 74.14 g lower than the supplemented lambs. When goats were supplemented on the pasture, CP intake increased (Silva et al, 2016). Due to the high protein content of these feedstuffs, more CP intake of supplemented lambs was expected.…”

“…The evaluation of animal performance as well as carcass characteristics and meat quality is a way of measuring the potential of diets or production systems and, in turn, meeting the market demand for quality carcasses. The use of spineless cactus exclusively or associated with other native forage plants as a dietary supplement for goats grazing in semi-arid areas has presented different responses regarding nutrient intake, carcass characteristics, and meat quality (Bezerra et al, 2012;Gusha et al, 2015;D. C. Silva et al, 2016).…”

“…This Biome is complex and consists of trees, shrubs and herbaceous species with great potential for use in animal feeding (Silva et al, 2016;Silva et al, 2017). However, in this region the irregular distribution of rainfall occurs, promoting seasonality in the production of fodder resources, with greater supply during the rainy season.…”
