Abstract excerpt

Limited information exists on how different forage cactus genotypes affect mineral metabolism in lambs. This study evaluated the effects of partially replacing elephant grass hay and fully replacing ground corn with three forage cactus genotypes on mineral intake, absorption, and tissue deposition in lambs. Forty uncastrated Santa Inês crossbred lambs (21.0 ± 2.0 kg; 6 months) were randomly assigned to four...
