Feed efficiency traits are directly associated with beef cattle profitability and sustainability. Weight gain, feed consumption, conversion rate and residual feed intake (RFI), for example, are important traits for the selection of efficient animals within the production system, however, with the exception of weight gain, these traits are not considered as selection criteria due to the d…
Research involving environmental enrichment in order to help grow the welfare of animals confined. The enrichment for rabbits is most commonly used wood, but few studies have evaluated these woods that animals prefer to just enrich the well-being. Thus we propose to evaluate the use of different species of wood as environmental enrichment for rabbits weaned at 35 days old. Each treatment …
Although the beef cattle breeding in Brazil plays a prominent role in the world scenario in terms of meat production, it is worth pointing out that the national herd has not been selected for feed efficiency so far. This suggests that animals are still far from their potential in terms of productivity and efficiency. With more efficient animals, the same level of production would be obtai…
