Meat productivity and functional properties of meat from Kazakh white-headed bulls with the introduction of an adaptogen system into the diet

Abstract

This article provides research on the use of a system of adaptogens of plant and animal origin, such as Leuzea safflower, drone homogenate, and pantocrine. The use of adaptogens in diets stimulates the development of animals, improves biochemical parameters, increases meat productivity and the characteristics of meat raw materials. To assess the effectiveness of adaptogens in diets, control and experimental groups of animals were compiled. Adaptogen preparations were fed to animals for 12 months. During the experiments, meat productivity indicators were determined. At the final stage of the research, an assessment of raw meat obtained from the control and experimental groups was carried out in order to determine its functional and technological properties. During the research, it was found that the use of the adaptogen system increases the meat productivity of animals, improves the quality and technological parameters of meat.
