  The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of suckling and slaughter weight on carcass characteristics, physico-chemical, sensory and fatty acid profile in meat goats. The experimental design will be completely randomized in a factorial 2x3 + 1, two rearing systems (without milk - WOM and with milk - WM), three slaughter weights (20, 30 and 40 kg), plus the additional treat…

Because of these traits it's used to feed children with allergy to cow's milk, elder and i…

• Abstract

  The Equidae rolling behavior is naturally exercised as self-grooming activity, parasite control, maintenance of body temperature, territorial strategies and social cohesion. However, the domestication and intensification of production systems restricted space of the animals, thus limiting the possibility of occurrence of this behavior, which should interfere with their welfare conditions…

• Abstract

  Due to competition with the long-life milk, goat milk producers in the state of São Paulo are being forced to adopt more efficient production systems. The confinement system, by offering forages in the trough, is being replaced at least part of the day, to use pastures, but the high nutritional requirements of dairy breeds require a concentrate supplementation. However, the use of corn an…

The fact that ruminant meat and milk are source of saturated fatty acids leads to an obstacle in marketing these products due to the cardiovascular diseases caused by this type of fat, considering that the modern consumer is increasingly worried about and look…
