ABSTRACT

Avaliou-se o desempenho de vacas leiteiras que consumiram polpa cítrica e dois teores dietéticos de silagem de grão úmido de milho. Os tratamentos foram: milho de textura dura ou milho de textura macia ensilado na linha negra, em fatorial com 9% ou 18% de milho na dieta. O teor de polpa cítrica na dieta foi de 16,2% ou 25,6%, com alto e baixo milho, respectivamente. Doze vacas receberam os tratamentos em quadrados latinos 4x4. A produção diária de leite foi 27,9kg no milho duro e 28,8 no macio (P=0,19). Alto milho diminuiu o teor de gordura do leite de 3,38 para 3,26% (P=0,04) e aumentou o teor de proteína de 2,99 para 3,03% (P=0,05) e a eficiência alimentar de 1,50 para 1,57kg de leite/kg de consumo (P=0,03). Aumento no teor de milho induziu maior queda no pH ruminal na dieta com milho macio do que na dieta com milho duro (P=0,05 para a interação textura versus teor de milho). O milho macio aumentou o consumo diário de matéria orgânica digestível de 11,7 para 12,3kg (P=0,05). Os parâmetros digestivos sugerem que a ensilagem não eliminou totalmente o efeito da textura do endosperma sobre a digestibilidade do milho.


Lactating cow performance on diets containing citrus pulp and two levels of high moisture corn silage was evaluated. Treatments were: hard texture corn or soft texture corn ensiled at the black layer, with a 9% or 18% factorial corn in the diet. Dietary citrus pulp content was 16.2% or 25.6%, for high and low corn, respectively. Twelve cows received the treatments in 4x4 Latin Squares. Daily milk yield was 27.9kg for hard corn and 28.8 for soft (P=0.19). High corn decreased milk fat content from 3.38 to 3.26% (P=0.04), and increased protein content from 2.99 to 3.03% (P=0.05) and feed efficiency from 1.50 to 1.57kg of milk/kg of intake (P=0.03). The increase of corn content generated a greater decrease in ruminal pH in the soft corn diet than in the hard corn diet (P=0.05 for the interaction of texture versus corn content). Soft corn increased the daily intake of digestible organic matter from 11.7 to 12.3kg (P=0.05). Digestive parameters suggest that ensilaging did not totally eliminate the endosperm texture effect on corn digestibility.

ABSTRACT

Chemical composition and physical parameters of 33 sorghum grain genotypes with different endosperm textures were obtained. Dry matter mean of genotypes was 88.77 percent; crude protein varied from 9.85 percent to 18.28 percent; starch varied from 62.07 percent to 78.74 percent; ether extract from 1.76 percent to 3.68 percent; crude fibra from 0.35 percent to 6.60 percent. Tannins were observed only for BR 305, SHS 600 and A 9904. The 1,000 grains weight varied from 12.58g for CMSXS 214 to 27,18g for A 9904. Density values varied from 1.40g/cm3 for texiota 5 to 1.50g/cm3 for SC 283. The vitreosity values varied from 1.10 to SC 283 to 4.20 for Early Hegari. Great variability for chemical and physical parameters of sorghum genotypes was observed
