Desempenho e características da carcaça de bovinos alimentados com dietas com caroço de algodão

Abstract: Avaliou-se o efeito da adição de caroço de algodão à dieta de bovinos confinados sobre o desempenho animal e características da carcaça. Usaram-se 36 novilhos Nelore com médias de idade e peso vivo inicial de 20 meses e 333,5kg. Os animais foram confinados e receberam dietas com os seguintes teores de caroço de algodão: 0; 14,35%; 27,51%; e 34,09% na matéria seca da dieta. O ganho de peso diário, peso vivo final e consumo de matéria seca diminuíram linearmente com o aumento da proporção de caroço de algodão na… Show more

“…Contrary to the previous studies, Costa et al (2011) found a linear decrease in DM intake of cattle as levels of cottonseed were increased, and justified this reduction as an effect of the reduction in fiber digestibility and the increase in rumen retention time of ingestion caused by greater amount of EE in the diet. Interestingly, the same authors found that this effect occurred in diets with levels of EE above 5%, and, in this experiment, 5% was the maximum threshold used.…”

“…However, differences in dry matter (DM) intake related to fat sources using cottonseed and its by-products were also observed (Cranston et al, 2006). Furthermore Costa et al (2011) found a linear decrease in DM intake and weight gain of cattle with increase of cottonseed levels; or Gunn, Weaver, Lemenager, Gerrard, Claeys, and Lake (2009), who found a reduction in gain of Angus cattle fed with distillery waste and soybean oil.…”

“…However there were no significant differences among the treatments for the exit weight of the animals, rib-eye area, BFT and carcass weight. Costa et al (2011) found similar results for the rib-eye area values according to different cottonseed levels in the diet. While for daily weight gain, carcass final weight and fat thickness these authors found a linear decrease effect with increasing levels of cottonseed up to 34.09%.…”

“…Cranston et al (2006) in including 15.1% of cottonseed in the diet of beef steers obtained results similar to that of this present study for the Rib-eye area and BFT, however, these authors found no differences for DWG and HCY on the contrary of the results obtained in this work. Costa et al (2011) with increased addition of cottonseed into the diet of cattle, found reduction of the carcass weight and coverage Backfat thickness. The final pH values (24h) are within the normal range expected for beef; however, there was significant reduction for meats obtained from the cottonseed-treated group (Table 2).…”

“…Likewise, no effect on diets was observed on the variable cold carcass weight (P>0.05). Costa et al (2011) also did not observe effect of different levels of cottonseed (0, 14, 27 and 34% DM) in the diet on the hot carcass weight. However, HuertaLeidenz et al (1991), in an experiment with crossbred Hereford-Angus cattle finished for a period of 56 days and subjected to diets with cottonseed at levels 0, 15 and 30% dietary DM observed significant decrease in the weight of carcass and also rib-eye area at the level of 30% inclusion of cottonseed.…”
