dc.description.abstractIt was evaluated several levels of mineral mixture and urea for crossbred heifers, with Gyr predominance, in the dry season period in Zona da Mata region in Minas Gerais. The experiment was carried out in a Brachiaria decumbens pasture area, divided in five paddocks of 3.5 hectares. It was used 35 heifers distributed in a 2 × 2 + 1 factorial scheme, composed of two levels of urea (10 and 25%), two levels of mineral salt (10 and 25%) and a control diet (only mineral salt), totaling five diets, each one evaluated with seven replicates. The supplements were based on ground corn, urea, ammonia sulfate and mineral mixture with 32 to 72% crude protein, and they composed the following diets: MM ( mineral mix), 10:10 (10% mineral mix, 10% urea and 80% corn); 10:25 (10% mineral mix, 25% urea and 65% corn); 25:10 (25% mineral mix, 10% urea and 65% corn), and 25:25 (25% mineral mix, 25% urea and 50% corn). Urea and mineral salt are effective in controlling supplement intake by bovines growing on pastures during dry season because the higher their levels, the lower the intake of supplements. Diets with 25% urea and 10% mineral salt provided higher daily weight gain and higher weight gain:supplemment intake ratio.en
dc.description.abstractAvaliaram-se diversos níveis de mistura mineral e ureia para novilhas mestiças, com predominância de Gir, no período da seca na região da Zona da Mata de Minas Gerais. O experimento foi realizado em uma área de pastagem formada de Brachiaria decumbens, dividida em cinco piquetes de 3,5 ha. Utilizaram-se 35 novilhas distribuídas em um esquema fatorial tipo 2 × 2 + 1, composto de dois níveis de ureia (10 e 25%), dois níveis de sal mineral (10 e 25%) e uma dieta controle (somente sal mineral), totalizando cinco dietas, cada uma avaliada com sete repetições. Os suplementos foram à base de milho moído, ureia, sulfato de amônia e mistura mineral, com 32 a 72% de proteína bruta, e compuseram as seguintes dietas: MM (mistura mineral); 10:10 (10% de mistura mineral, 10% de ureia e 80% de milho); 10:25 (10% de mistura mineral, 25% de ureia e 65% de milho); 25:10 (25% de mistura mineral, 10% de ureia e 65% de milho); e 25:25 (25% de mistura mineral, 25% de ureia e 50% de milho). A ureia e o sal mineral são efetivos em controlar o consumo de suplemento por bovinos em crescimento em pastagem no período da seca, uma vez que, quanto maiores seus níveis, menor o consumo de suplementos. Dietas contendo 25% de ureia e 10% de sal mineral proporcionam maior ganho de peso diário e maior relação de ganho de peso:consumo de suplemento.pt-BR
