          Abstract

          A suplementação alimentar proporciona suprimento de nutrientes limitantes e aumento da eficiência de utilização das pastagens. O consumo de suprimentos pode ser controlado pelo uso de uréia e sais minerais, impedindo a dominância de uns animais sobre os outros. Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o consumo e a digestibilidade aparente dos nutrientes em novilhos Nelore em terminação, alimentados com diferentes níveis de suplemento à base de fubá de milho, durante o período da seca. O experimento foi implantado em pastagem de Panicum maximum 'Tanzânia', em quatro piquetes de 1,0 hectare. Foram utilizados quatro novilhos Nelore com 30 meses e peso médio inicial de 440 kg. Os animais foram distribuídos em quadrado latino 4x4 (quatro níveis de suplementação e quatro períodos). Foram utilizados níveis crescentes de suplemento: 1,0; 2,0; e 4,0 kg/animal/dia, além do tratamento controlemistura mineral. Os suplementos, à exceção do controle, apresentaram níveis decrescentes de proteína bruta (42,6 a 25% da matéria seca) e proporções de mistura mineral:uréia:fubá de milho de 10:10:80, 5:5:90 e 2,5:2,5:95 para os tratamentos com 1,0; 2,0 e 4,0 kg/animal/dia, respectivamente. A uréia foi usada como controladora de consumo de suplemento. Os períodos experimentais constituíram-se de 16 dias cada um, num total de 64 dias. O consumo e a digestibilidade foram determinados por meio do indicador externo óxido crômico e indicador interno FDAi. Houve efeito linear crescente para o consumo de matéria seca em kg/animal/dia e em porcentagem do PV, consumo de proteína bruta, consumo de extrato etéreo, consumo de fibra em detergente neutro, consumo de carboidratos não fibrosos e consumo de nutrientes digestíveis totais. Não houve efeito sobre o consumo de pastagem. Houve efeito linear crescente para os coeficientes de digestibilidade aparente da matéria seca e fibra em detergente neutro. Não houve efeito para os coeficientes de digestibilidade da proteína bruta, extrato etéreo e carboidratos não fibrosos.

          The supplementation allows the supply of limiting nutrients and increase in efficiency of pasture utilization. The intake of supplement can be controlled by use of urea and mineral salt, avoiding dominancy of some animals over the others. The objective of this study was to evaluate the intake and apparent digestibility of nutrients in finishing phase Nellore steers fed different levels of supplements based on corn meal, during the dry season. The experiment was implanted on pasture of Panicum maximum 'Tanzânia', in four paddocks of 1.0 hectare. Four 30 months old and initial weight of 440 kg Nellore steers were used. The animals were distributed in 4x4 Latin square (four levels of supplementation and four periods). Levels of supplements use were: 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 kg/ animal/day, in addition to a control group receiving mineral mixture. The supplements, except the control, presented decreasing levels of crude protein (52.0 to 42.6% of dry matter) and proportions of mineral mixture:urea:corn meal of 10:10:80, 5:5:90 and 2.5:2.5:95, respectively. Urea was used as supplement intake controller. The experimental periods lasted 16 days each one, in a total of 64 days. The intake and the digestibility were measured with the use of the external indicator chromium oxide and internal indicator iADF. There was increasing linear effect for dry matter intake in kg/animal/day and percentage of BW, and intakes of crude protein, ethereal extract, neutral detergent fiber, non fibrous carbohydrates and total digestible nutrients, and there was no effect on the forage intake. There was increasing linear effect for the digestibility coefficient of dry matter and neutral detergent fiber. There was no effect for the digestibility coefficient of crude protein, ethereal extract and non fibrous carbohydrates.
