During animal development countless metabolic reactions take place, they are mediated and influenced by a wild range of factors that have not been well studied in goats, mainly in their different growth phases. These events will especially affect body and consequently the animal nutritional requirements, as well as their carcass traits. Therefore, the aim of this study is determine the ma…
The knowledge of the nutritional requirements is essential for optimal animal production. Considering its importance, several studies were conducted in order to determine the nutrient requirements for goats on national conditions. Despite this effort, it is still possible to verify the need for a comprehensive study on the requirements of growing goats, especially considering the influenc…
The objective of this study is to determine the nutritional requirements of macro minerals (Ca, P, Mg, Na and K) for gain in Saanen goats of different genders, weighting from 15 to 30 kg BW. The experiment will be carried out at UNESP Laboratory Study in Goats (Jaboticabal, SP, Brazil). Fifty eight Saanen goat kids (20 intact males, 20 castrated males and 18 females), with 15 kg of initia…
Methane is usually produced in the rumen as the end product of fermentation, as well as a loss in potential energy for ruminants. The methane production is directly proportional to the concentration of dissolved H2. Therefore, we must prevent access to these protons by methanogenic organisms through the optimizing of its use. The experiment will be carried out at the goat study sector at …

Little is known about the macromineral requirements of goats and there are no publications which compare the requirements among different sexes. In this sense, the objective of internship abroad is to estimate Ca, P, Mg, Na and K requirements for maintenance and gain of intact male, castrated male and female Saanen goat kids. The growth requirements will be estimated using data from Fapes…
Methane produced by ruminants is considered twenty times more potent than carbon dioxide (CO2) in the process of the greenhouse effect and increasing the concentration of these gases are responsible for global warming. To implement mitigation strategies, it is important to have confidence in the accuracy of measurement technology CH4. Methane emissions from livestock were measured as part…
