“…Canova et al (2015), evaluating crushed crambe for use as sheep feed, replaced soybean meal with crambe protein in high-concentrate lamb diets and showed that crambe protein can be used for lambs because it provides a large energy and protein intake with similar protein characteristics to those of soybean meal. Souza et al (2015) completely replaced soybean meal and found no changes in the performance of cows, recommending that soybean meal be replaced with crambe protein in the finishing phase. Anderson et al (1993) analyzed finishing steers and did not find any difference in the performance of animals fed R. Bras.…”

-The objective of this study was to evaluate the replacement of soybean meal by crushed crambe on the qualitative characteristics, lipids, and chemical composition of the meat from crossbred Santa Ines ewes. These animals presented an initial body score of 2.5, were finished in confinement for 60 days, fed diets containing crushed crambe replacing 0, 33, 67, and 100% of soybean meal, and slaughtered with a body condition score of 3.5. The statistical design was completely randomized, with slaughter weight used as a covariate in the model. Sensory evaluations were performed in the gluteobiceps muscle by untrained evaluators (n = 100) of different ages. There was no significant effect for color, shear force, or cooking loss of the semimembranosus muscle. The replacement levels of soybean meal influenced only the moisture content, with a linear increase, and the ash content, which decreased linearly. For saturated fatty acids, there was linear effect on capric acid (C10:0), and a linear reduction of myristic (C14:0), pentadecanoic (C15:0), and heptadecanoic (C17:0) fatty acids. There was no influence of the inclusion level of crushed crambe on monounsaturated fatty acids. A linear increase was observed in the polyunsaturated fatty acids linoleic acid (C18:2n-6) and eicosatrienoic acid (C20:3n-3). For the sensory attributes, there were differences only for the variables flavor and tenderness, in which meat was considered more flavorful if it was from animals fed 0% crushed crambe, with an average of 1.6, and considered more tender if it was from animals finished with 15% crushed crambe in the diet, scoring an average of 1.7. Crushed crambe can be considered a promising alternative in the feeding of ewes finished in feedlot, replacing soybean meal in the diet, showing satisfactory results with respect to meat quality.

“…In tropical regions the crambe bran (Crambe abyssinica Hoschst.) a coproduct of the biofuel agribusiness, presents certain particularities in its bromatological composition, such as: high DM content and crude protein (Carrera et al, 2012;Souza, Goes, Silva, Yoshihara, & Prado, 2015). Thus, the use of crambe bran as an additive for tropical grasses ensilage will enable the increase of dry matter content and even enhance the crude protein content of the silage, making it possible to reduce the costs with the use of protein concentrates in diets, besides reducing possible impacts with the discharge of this co-product directly in the environment.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of inclusion of crambe bran concentrations (Crambe abyssinica Hochst.) with different specific masses in elephant grass silage (Penninsetum purpureum Schum.). For that, the bromatological and microbiological compositions of the experimental silages were determined. We used 48 mini silos distributed in a completely randomized design, arranged in a factorial 4 × 3, four levels of inclusion of crambe bran (0; 10; 20 and 30%) and three specific masses (400; 500 and 600 kg MN m-3), with four replications. After 240 days of fermentation the silos were opened. It was observed linear effect on DM, CP, NDFap, ADFap, HEM, LIG, NFC, TC and population of bacteria that produce lactic acid with the addition of crambe meal. There was interaction between the crambe bran factors and specific masses on the values of pH and N-NH3. For MM variables and yeast count there was a negative linear effect due to the evaluated specific mass. The inclusion of crambe bran helps to increase the fermentative profile and the bromatological composition of elephant grass silages studied, and the best results were obtained with the addition of 30% of this coproduct, based on the natural matter.

Coprodutos de crambe (Crambe abyssinica hoechst) na alimentação de ruminantes

et al. 2016

A utilização de resíduos agroindustriais na alimentação animal normalmente propicia redução no custo de produção, colaborando com a preservação dos recursos naturais e com a produção animal sustentável. No sistema de produção animal, a alimentação representa o item de maior custo. Deste modo, possíveis alternativas de alimentos que assegurem taxas compatíveis de desempenho animal com boa lucratividade devem ser avaliadas. O crambe, da família Brassicaceas, é uma planta de clima subtropical, bem adaptada aos climas quentes e frios, apresentando como principal característica elevada concentração de óleo e proteína. Seus coprodutos apresentam elevado teor proteico (20 a 30 %) e energético (em torno de 29 %), sendo considerada uma boa alternativa na alimentação de ruminantes. Neste contexto iremos abordar as principais limitações e os potenciais de uso de coprodutos de crambe, como alternativa a substituição das fontes proteicas tradicionais, na alimentação de ruminantes.
