RESUMO.O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos de inoculantes bacterianos e/ou enzimáticos sobre a degradabilidade ruminal da silagem de milho. Foi utilizada a técnica in situ, em quatro bovinos adultos, distribuídos em quadrado latino 4x4. O s tratamentos avaliados foram: SC (silagem controle), SIB (silagem com inoculante bacteriano), SIBE (silagem com inoculante bacteriano e enzimático) e SIE (silagem com inoculante enzimático). Não houve diferença entre tratamentos nas frações solúvel (a), potencialmente degradável (b), taxa de degradação da fração b (c), degradabilidade potencial (DP) e degradabilidade efetiva (DE) da MS e MO. A DE da PB foi maior para o tratamento SIE (63,13%) e menor para o tratamento SIBE (53,69%). A fração b da FDN apresentou maior valor para SIBE (74,13%) e menor para SIB (64,07%). O resíduo indigerido (I) da FDN não diferiu entre os tratamentos. As frações b e I e a taxa c da FDA não diferiram entre os tratamentos.Palavras-chave: degradação, fibra, matéria orgânica, matéria seca, proteína bruta.ABSTRACT. In situ degradability of corn silages prepared with bacterial and/or enzymatic inoculants. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of the bacterial and/or enzymatic inoculants on corn silage degradation. The in situ technique was used in four adult steers in a 4x4 latin square design. The evaluated treatments were: CS (control silage), SBI (silage with bacterial inoculant), SBEI (silage with bacterial a nd enzymatic inoculant) and SEI (silage with enzymatic inoculant). There was no difference among treatments i n soluble fraction (a), potential degradable fraction (b), fraction b rate of degradation (c), potential degradability (PD) and effective degradability (ED) of DM and OM. The ED of CP was higher in SEI treatment (63.13%) and lower in SBEI treatment (53.69%). The b fraction of NDF was higher for SBEI (74.13%) and lower for SBI (64.07%). The NDF indigestible residue (I) did not show any difference among treatments. The ADF b and I fraction and the c rate values did not show any difference among treatments.
RESUMO. Foram utilizados 40 bovinos nelores, divididos em dois grupos: SUP -os animais foram mantidos a pasto e receberam 0,5% do peso vivo em suplemento no período da seca; NSU -animais mantidos a pasto, sem suplemento. Metade dos animais de cada tratamento eram castrados e a outra metade eram inteiros. Observou-se melhor ganho médio diário durante o período do inverno para os animais suplementados (SUP = 0,339; NSU = 0,193 kg) e os animais pertencentes ao grupo controle (NSU) apresentaram ganho compensatório no período do verão. Os animais inteiros obtiveram ganhos médios diários superiores aos castrados durante todo o período (0,506 x 0,412 kg) e atingiram o peso de abate (480 kg) a uma idade mais jovem (330 x 409 dias até o abate). Verificou-se melhor rendimento de carcaça fria para os animais castrados. A suplementação não promoveu melhores características de carcaça aos animais testados.Palavras-chave: castração, idade ao abate, pesos, rendimento de cortes, suplementação.ABSTRACT. Performance and carcass characteristics of bulls or steers supplemented or not supplemented during the winter. Forty Nellore bovines were used. Animals were divided in two groups: 1) SUP -Animals on pasture and supplemented (0.5% of live body weight) with a concentrated during the winter (dry season), and 2) NSU -Animals on pasture, without supplementation. Half of the animals of each treatment was steers and the other half was bulls. Best average daily gain (ADG) during the period of the winter was observed in the supplemented animals (SUP = 0.339; NSU = 0.193 kg), and the animals belonging to the control group (NSU) presented compensatory weight gain in the period of the summer. Bulls had greater ADG during the whole period than steers (0.506 vs. 0.412 kg), and they reached the slaughter weight (480 kg) at a younger age (330 vs. 409 days up to slanghter). Best cold carcass dressing percentage was verified for steers and the supplementation did not promote better carcass characteristics in the tested animals.
