          Abstract

          O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o desempenho reprodutivo de vacas Nelore em pastos de capim-marandu, após a retirada do fosfato bicálcico da mistura mineral, na estação seca. Sessenta matrizes receberam, durante seis anos, mistura mineral completa na estação chuvosa. Na estação seca, os tratamentos consistiram de: mistura mineral completa (MMC); MMC sem fosfato bicálcico (MM); e MM + concentrado. As pastagens foram manejadas de forma a não limitar a disponibilidade de matéria seca. A retirada do fosfato bicálcico do suplemento mineral, durante a estação seca, não prejudicou o desempenho reprodutivo de vacas, avaliado pela taxa de prenhez, intervalo de partos e retorno da atividade cíclica ovariana. Vacas que receberam concentrado na estação seca pariram em melhor condição corporal; vacas primíparas arraçoadas apresentaram menor número de dias vazios do que as vacas primíparas dos demais tratamentos. A retirada do fosfato bicálcico suplementar, fonte de fósforo e cálcio, na estação seca, não prejudica o desempenho de vacas multíparas em pastejo de capim-marandu.

          The objective of this work was to evaluate the reproductive performance of Nelore cows at 'Marandu' palisade grass paddocks, after dicalcium phosphate withdrawal from the mineral supplement in the dry season. Sixty breeding cows received, during six years, a complete mineral mixture in the wet season. In the dry season, the treatments consisted of: a complete mineral mixture (MMC); MMC without dicalcium phosphate (MM); and MM plus a concentrate. Pastures were managed in order to allow for adequate dry matter availability. The removal of dicalcium phosphate from the mineral supplement, during the dry season, did not affect the animal reproduction performance which was evaluated as pregnancy rates, delivery intervals and return of oestrous cycles. Cows receiving concentrate in the dry season had higher body score at delivery; primiparous cows which fed concentrate showed a lower number of days open, in comparison to the primiparous ones of the other treatments. Dicalcium phosphate withdrawal from the mineral supplement, source of phosphorus and calcium, during the dry season, does not affect the reproductive performance of multiparous range cows grazing 'Marandu' palisade grass.
