Banana peel in the diet for F1 Holstein x Zebu cows

Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of includingsun-dried banana peel in diets for F1 Holstein x Zebu cows on intake, digestibility and milk production. Diets were composed of 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60% replacement of sorghum silage with banana peel provided to 10 cows in two simultaneous 5 x 5 Latin squares, with the experiment divided into five periods of 16 days. The dry matter intake showed a quadratic effect with maximum level at 38.30% substitution as well as intake of crude protein expressed in kg -1 da… Show more

“…The substitution of 5 and 10% banana peel provider adequate non-fiber carbohydrates. The higher non-fiber carbohydrates in banana peels have an increasing effect on body weight (Pimentel et al 2017). Banana is rich in carbohydrates (22.84g/100g), provides energy of about 370kJ/100g, and is considered to be one of the best sources of potassium (358mg/100g) (Ranjha et al 2022).…”

“…In contrast, reported in rabbits, the effect of banana peels on the bodyweight of male growing rabbits was not significantly changed (Rehman and Shah 2020). Also different in cattle, feeding 60% banana peel in diets represents a viable alternative as it causes no change in cows with average production (Pimentel et al 2017).…”

“…The results verified comply with current legislation, with values above the minimum limits required (BRASIL 2018). The high roughage: concentrate ratio (75:25) of the evaluated diets also helps to explain the high milk fat content, which is associated with higher rumen acetate concentration and the fact that crossbred cows tend to produce higher fat content in milk (Pimentel et al 2017;Santiago et al 2019;Silva et al 2019).…”

“…Several studies have already been performed evaluating the replacement of traditional roughages (i.e. sorghum silage, sugar cane, elephant grass) by agro-industry byproducts on animal performance, milk composition and quality of dairy cows showing good results (Pimentel et al 2017;Antunes et al 2018;Melo et al 2018;Santiago et al 2019). Thus, in F1 Holstein x Zebu lactating cows, it is necessary to evaluate the nutrient intake and milk and cheese composition after the inclusion of pseudostem hay in the diet associated with different roughages.…”

“…A utilização dos subprodutos/resíduos da bananicultura como matéria-prima, além dos benefícios econômicos, representaria a redução de impactos ambientais, visto que são descartados no ambiente e promovem custos adicionais às empresas processadoras (Lousada júnior et al, 2005). Pimentel et al (2017), ao substituírem a silagem de sorgo em até 60% pela casca de banana seca ao sol, não verificaram diferenças na produção de leite e na produção corrigida para 3,5% de gordura, que apresentou média de 16,49 kg/dia. A casca da banana possui um notório valor nutricional, constituindo uma rica fonte de carboidratos, principalmente a pectina (10 a 21%), carboidrato altamente fermentável no rúmen (Mahopatra et al, 2010).…”
