Food production is important for the world's supply, and Brazil stands out in terms of productivity and exports of agribusiness products. The livestock sector is significant but suffers from the consequences of being an activity that contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Livestock farming contributes 9% of CO2 to global emissions, 37% of CH4 and 65% of N2O; in addition, this acti…
According to ARCO (Brazilian Association of Sheep Breeders) 68% of sheep breeders are small producers, with less than 50 animals, and according to LUPA/SP, in the State of São Paulo there are almost 10 thousand producers of sheep, more than 80% of which are small producers. Therefore, finding food alternatives that replace products considered "commodities" and, at the same time, promote a…
The objective of this project is to evaluate the effect of two alternative bulky food sources, Moringa oleifera and Tithonia diversifolia, in the diet of sheep through the study of in vivo digestibility parameters, in vitro and in vivo CH4 production, ruminal microbial community, and animal performance. The experiment will be carried out in four stages. Stage I will consist of the in vitr…
The Instituto de Zootecnia develops projects in all areas of animal production, with an emphasis, in the last decade, on sustainable animal production. Its project portfolio is carried out by 5 Research Centers (supported by other administrative centers), divided into Beef Cattle (Sertãozinho and São José do Rio Preto Unit), Milk Cattle (Nova Odessa and Ribeirão Preto Units), Zootechnics …

With 15 million tons in 2018, sheep meat represented 4.5% of the total animal protein produced in the world, and sheep farming represents an important global socioeconomic activity, especially in developing countries. Despite the increase in sheep meat consumption in Brazil, this scenario was not accompanied by production, placing the country in a prominent position in the importation of …
The profitability of an animal production system depends not only on the use of quality and low-cost foods in the diets but on the use and maintenance of more efficient herds. This has driven the search for the identification and selection of animals that efficiently use food and water since the best use of the diet brings benefits both in terms of the environment and the profitability of…

The phenotypic evaluation of feed efficiency traits for ruminant species through feed efficiency tests is currently common. The use of this information helps genetic improvement programs, bringing great benefits to production systems, as well as to planet. The large amount of data produced from feed efficiency tests is usually analyzed in a "univariate" way. However, thinking in a global …
