Avaliação do grão de milheto (penniselllm americanum) em substituição ao milho (Zea mays) em rações para cabras em lactação.

Besides increasing the grain production, considered as a wastage, the millet has been tested as an ingredient in feed fonnulation to production animais. This research was carried out in the goat production section of the Escola de Veterinária, Universidade Federal de Goiás, and the aim was to evaluate the substituti­on of com by millet grain in the rations fonnulated to daiiy goats. Sixteen alpine daiiy goats were distributed in latin square design and alloted in four treatments with inceasing leveis of substitution : TI - 0%; T2 - 33%; T3 - 66%; T4 - 99%. Toe data collected were analysed in ANOV A S}'stem that indicated no significant effects ( P> 0,05) on milk prodution, milk fat (M.G), ash (M.M), total drn extract (EST), unfatty dry extract (ESD), acidity (AC) and crioscopy (CRIO), except for the milk protein that was linearly affected (P>0,05).porAcesso AbertoMilhetoRaçãoCabrasLactaçãoMilletRationsGoatsJactationArtigo
