“…According to Pimentel et al (2016), the use of banana peel to replace sorghum silage by up to 60% in the feeding of F1 Holstein x Zebu cows during lactation did not influence milk production with an average of 16.49 kg and observed an increase in consumption and feed efficiency of dry matter. Antunes et al (2017) reports that the inclusion of banana peel in diets in place of sorgum silage did not influence fat and protein contents, thus maintaining its quality.…”

Among the techniques for conserving forage for herbivore feeding, the production of grass silage has beenwidely used in recent times in tropical regions, however, the low content of dry matter and carbohydrates in these forages can hamper the fermentation of ensiled biomass. In this regard, the dehydrated banana peel presents itself as an alternative as an additive in the production of grass silage. Given the above, the objective of this review was to present the main aspects of the use of dehydrated banana peel as an additive in the production of grass silage. The review was developed through the search for selected terms, such as: “grass silages”, “banana residues”, “additives”. The terms were searched in the Google Scholar, Scielo, PubMed, Elsevier, Science Direct, Capes Periodical databases. The banana peel has bromatological characteristics that make it a good alternative for use in the feeding of ruminants, with carbohydrate values of up to 32.4% of dry matter, as well as a source of protein, ether extract, minerals, and essential amino acids. Because it presents good nutritional values compared to citrus and cassava peel, the banana peel has been used in the feeding of ruminants by small producers in tropical regions, where the use of by-products has the purpose of having lower feeding costs. The use of dehydrated banana peel is an alternative to be used as na additive in the production of grass silage and ruminant feed due to its nutritional characteristics.

The objective was to evaluate the effects of different levels of banana peel inclusion on the physiological variables of lactating F1 Holstein × Zebu cows. Ten cows distributed in two 5 × 5 Latin squares were used. Five experimental diets were tested: sorghum silage (control group); and the addition of 15%, 30%, 45%, and 60% of banana peel to replace sorghum silage. The experiment lasted 80 days. The environmental and physiological variables of the animals were measured. The Black Globe-Humidity Index presented an alert situation in the morning shift and a dangerous situation in the afternoon shift. The respiratory rate was not influenced by the levels of banana peel inclusion (P > 0.05) in the morning shift. However, it was influenced (P < 0.05) in the afternoon shift. The levels of banana peel inclusion in the diet did not affect the rectal temperature. Under the study environmental conditions, the level of up to 60% of banana peel replacing sorghum silage did not alter the physiological variables of thermoregulation in F1 Holstein × Zebu cows.
