There is an increasing interest in the use of residual feed intake (RFI) as a tool for measuring feed efficiency in cattle and sheep on growth. However, the biological basis of differences in RFI from buffaloes is still unknown. The aim of this unpublished research is to evaluate feed efficiency and its phenotypic correlations with metabolic parameters, food digestion, behavior, and carca…
Given that the utilization of essential oils as castor and cashew oil have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant features, may increase the feed efficiency of bulls finished in feedlot and the shelf life of meat and that the animal temperament has direct effect in handling of animals and consequently in the carcass and meat quality, the objective with this research are assess t…
Given the growing concern about animal welfare and the relationship of this behavioral trait with production efficiency, the objective with this research project to evaluate the effect of temperament and stress of cattle intended for cutting, feedlot with respect to: the productive and qualitative aspects of meat; to possible losses in the beef production chain, and identifying parameters…

The aim of this study is to evaluate the nutrient digestibility of the diet for buffaloes from three genetic groups (GG). The experiment will be performed at the Center for Tropical Research in Water Buffaloes, which is a unit of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science of Sao Paulo State University "Julio de Mesquita Filho", located in the Midwest of São Paulo State, Brazil.…
The objective of this research project is to determine the nutritional requirements of buffaloes of three genetic groups in the growth phase. The experiment will carried out at the new Center for Tropical Research in Buffaloes, Edgárdia Experimental Farm, Botucatu, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science of Sao Paulo State University ‘Júlio de Mesquita Filho’, located in the Cent…
