Composição Corporal e Requisitos Energéticos e Protéicos de Bovinos Nelore, Não-Castrados, Alimentados com Rações Contendo Diferentes Níveis de Concentrado e Proteína

Abstract: RESUMO -Foram utilizados 40 novilhos Nelore inteiros, com peso vivo médio inicial de 240 kg, sendo quatro novilhos de referência, quatro alimentados para mantença e o restante distribuído em oito tratamentos, com quatro diferentes níveis de concentrado nas dietas (20; 40; 60 e 80%) e dois níveis de proteína bruta (PB) (15 e 18%). Os conteúdos de proteína, gordura e energia retidos no corpo foram estimados por meio de equações de regressão do logaritmo do conteúdo corporal de proteína, gordura ou energia, em fu… Show more

“…The results are consistent with those observed for animals reared on pasture (Zervoudakis et al, 2002;Fregadolli, 2005) and for animals reared in feedlot confinement (Silva, 2002a;Paulino et al, 2004a, Freitas et al, 2006. According to Berg & Butterfield (1976) as the weight increases, the concentration of fat in the body increases, with a consequent increase in energy requirements, because there is an increase in energy value of the gain with the increase in animal BW.…”

“…The net protein requirements, observed in an animal of 400 kg, of 166.37 g/kg EBWG of protein were 17.73% higher than those determined by Moraes (2006) for Nellore cattle on pasture, with the same BW. Silva et al (2002a), worked with intact Nellore animals in feedlot, reported values ranging from 177.60 to 172.15 g/kg EBWG for 300 to 450 kg BW, respectively, higher than the values obtained in this experiment. The following equation was obtained from the data of this study to estimate the retained protein (RP) (g/day), in function of fasting BW gain by (FBWG) (kg/day), and retained energy (RE) (Mcal/day): RP = 28.9199 + 85.7301 * FBWG + 8.0669 * RE (r 2 = 0.58).…”

“…De acordo com Silva et al (2002), a melhoria no desempenho produtivo do rebanho nacional exige o aprofundamento de estudos sobre exigências nutricionais em condições brasileiras, considerando-se as peculiaridades dos animais criados, do tipo de alimentação e das condições ambientais. Siqueira et al (2007) afirmaram que programas de acasalamento envolvendo raças europeias e zebuínas possibilitam a conciliação da adaptação ao ambiente tropical, ao potencial produtivo e à alta qualidade de carcaça.…”
