Forage supply from herbs was assessed in a thinned Caatinga enriched with buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) exposed to goat and sheep grazing. The 2.4 ha experimental area, located at the Experimental Station of the Federal University of Campina Grande, in Santa Terezinha, Paraíba State, Brazil, was divided into four 0.6 ha paddocks, which were further subdivided into two 0.3 ha experimental plots. Twelve F1 (Boer x SRD) goats and 12 Santa Inês sheep were divided in four groups of six animals of the same species. The herbaceous vegetation was separated into buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.), dicotyledons and other grass species. Treatments were randomized to plots according to a completely random design with two treatments, four replications, with... |

The purpose was to estimate the liquid requirements of Zn, Fe, Mn and Cu for weight gain in 46 castrated Canindé goats in grazing system in the Caatinga supplemented with 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5% levels in relation to live weight. The animals had an initial average body weight of 15.76 ± 0.96 kg. Six animals were slaughtered at the onset of the experiment (16.1 ± 1.15 kg BW) and the rest (n = 40) were randomly distributed into one of the four levels of supplementation. The body composition (mg kg-1 EBW) varied from 8.47 to 9.09 mg Zn, 13.54 to 13.77 mg Fe, 6.34 to 6.36 mg Mn and 3.78 to 5.10 mg Cu, for Canindé goats with 15 and 25 kg BW, respectively, and the liquid requirements for gain (mg kg-1 BW gain) were estimated by the comparative slaughter method, and... |
