Resumo

A inclusão com aditivos na dieta para ruminantes é uma estratégia para auxiliar no aproveitamento dos alimentos. Os aditivos biológicos tornaram-se objetivos de várias pesquisas no mundo. Dentre esses, os óleos essenciais e os simbióticos têm recebido atenção especial. Os probióticos, prebióticos e enzimas digestivas, conhecida como simbióticos, têm surgido como uma alternativa viável para aprimorar o rendimento dos animais. Objetivou-se com o presente trabalho observar os benefícios advindos da inclusão de aditivos á dieta de bovinos de corte e aumentar a produtividade em regime de confinamento. A dieta era composta de silagem de milho (75%), concentrado (25%) e núcleo mineral para confinamento. Foram utilizados 42 garrotes Nelore, divididos em 4 tratamentos. Sendo: Tratamento 1 – Controle: alimentação basal sem aditivos; Tratamento 2 – Bf-Bovinos com inclusão de 10 g/animal/dia de Biofórmula Bovinos; Tratamento 3 – Bf-Bovinos + OE: com inclusão de 10 g/animal/dia; Tratamento 4 – OE: com inclusão de 10 g/animal/dia de óleos essenciais. A utilização do BF-Bovinos®, um simbiótico composto por probióticos, prebióticos e enzimas digestivas proporcionou um ganho adicional de 171 g/animal/dia no ganho de peso e melhoria da conversão alimentar em bovinos em sistema de confinamento.
