Brazil's beef cattle production sector is largely responsible for economic growth and makes the country the largest beef exporter globally. However, high productivity can have detrimental environmental impacts such as the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). Fundamentally, the core goal for the country is to supply the world demand for animal protein without disregarding sustainability, fo…
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of pasture management using high supplementation in the performance and reproduction parameters of Nellore heifers submitted to 14-15 months of age to fixed time artificial insemination protocol (FTAI). The study will be conducted at APTA (Colina/SP), it will start in the dry season (after weaning) and lasting over the rainy season un…
The Animal Science Institute (IZ), belonging to the São Paulo Agribusiness Technology Agency (APTA), from the São Paulo State Department of Agriculture and Supply (SAA), is responsible for developing and transferring technology and inputs for the sustainability of the systems of animal production. For the elaboration of the institutional Plan for Research Development of IZ (PDIP/IZ), the …
This experiment will be conducted in the Pólo Regional da Alta Mogiana, em Colina - SP, research unit of Agência Paulista de Tecnologia dos Agronegócios - APTA, aiming to assess the impact of nutritional strategies for growing and finishing on biological efficiency of beef cattle Nellore. The trial period will be from July 2013 to September 2014 and will be divided into three phases. Phas…

The objective is to evaluate the effect of using Amaize® and Fibrozyme® enzymes in feedlot diets on performance, intake, nutrient digestibility (partial and total), microbial protein synthesis (MPS), ruminal bacterial diversity (RBD), ruminal parameters, blood parameters and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of Nellore bulls. Two experiments will be carry out at APTA Colina - SP evalu…
The objective of this project is to study the effects of pasture management with supplementation in the performance and reproduction of Nellore heifers submitted to 14-15 months of age to fixed-time artificial insemination protocol. The study will be conducted at APTA (Colina-SP), starting in the dry season (after weaning) and extending over the rainy season until the animals enter in the…
The Brazilian herd is composed almost entirely of Bos indicus animals, which are more adapted to the tropical climate and non-precocious. Reproductive characteristics have low heritability, showing that nutrition and the environment can influence. The objective of the project is to define the best nutritional strategy in the Nellore heifers growing to reach the body weight (BW) for attain…
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the use of tannin extracts (SilvaFeed Bypro®) on protein-energy supplements with different rates of protein degradation on animal performance, ruminal bacterial diversity, ruminal and blood parameters in Nellore cattle, in growing phase during the dry season. The study will be divided into two experiments (1 - evaluation of animal perfor…

The rapid screening of dietary additives is key to identifying potential rumen modifiers that could improve nutrient utilization efficiency. The study aims to evaluate the effect of feed additives on changes in microbiome composition, metabolic outputs of ruminal fermentation and improve nutrient utilization efficiency in-vitro. For this, the ruminal content will be sampled from 8 fistula…
The aim of this study is determine whether the methane producing potential of foragescan be predicted using an in vitro fermentation system. Several studies will be conducted toevaluate the forages using an in vitro fermentation technique to assess rumen degradability offiber and methane production. Study 1 will examine the effects of starch and fiber compositionon corn silage degradabili…
The objective of this study is to determine the amount of time necessary for rumen motility to be affected by ruminal dosing of endophyte-infected tall fescue seed for growing steers feed once daily. Eight ruminally-cannulated Holstein steers will be paired by weight in a randomized complete block design (RBD). Within each block, one steer will be assigned to each treatment: endophyte-fre…
