Abstract:
... Animal feeding behavior and diet composition determine rumen fermentation responses and its microbial characteristics. This study aimed to evaluate the rumen fermentation kinetics of domestic ruminants feeding diets with or without condensed tannins (CT). Holstein dairy cows, Nelore beef cattle, Mediterranean water buffalo, Santa Inês sheep and Saanen goats were used as inoculum donors (three anim ...

Abstract:
... Stable isotopes can be an important research tool to track C and N in grazing experiments. This study tested different proportions of C4 grass and legume and the correlation between dietary δ13C with fecal δ13C. Forty lambs, male, with average body weight of 20.4 kg, were randomized in a complete block design and fed Tifton-85 (Cynodon spp.) and Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) hays, at different levels ...

Abstract:
... The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of replacing tifton hay (Cynodon spp.) with alfalfa hay (Medicago sativa) in spineless cactus-based (Nopalea cochenillifera Salm-Dyck) diets for lactating goats on intake and digestibility of nutrients, ingestive behavior, metabolic profile and production and composition of milk. The experimental diets were composed of increasing levels (0, 33, 67 a ...

Abstract:
... Brazil has the largest commercial herd of ruminants in the world and these animals are kept on tropical pastures with low crude protein and high fibre contents resulting in large amounts of methane emission from rumen microbial fermentation. The main objective of this study was to compare in vitro methane production from taurine dairy cattle (Bos taurus taurus), zebu beef cattle (Bos taurus indicu ...

Abstract:
... Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) resistance to synthetic anthelmintics in small ruminants has led to the evaluation of feed sources containing naturally occurring bioactive secondary metabolites that lessen parasite activity. Plants rich in condensed tannins (CT) can have beneficial anthelmintic properties. Peanut (Arachis hypogea L.) skins (testa), an agricultural by-product, are a rich source of ...
