Influence of whole corn grain in calves feed on production trates

Abstract

Istraživan je utjecaj dodavanja cijelog zrna kukuruza u hranidbi teladi na tjelesne mase, dnevne priraste, ukupne priraste, dnevnu konzumaciju hrane, ukupnu konzumaciju hrane, konverziju hrane, tjelesne mjere, indekse anamorfoznosti i indekse razvijenosti trupa teladi. Dodavanje cijelog zrna kukuruza u hranidbi teladi imalo je utjecaj na dnevne i ukupne priraste teladi. Nisu utvrđene razlike u dnevnoj i ukupnoj konzumacije hrane s obzirom na dodavanje cijelog zrna kukuruza u hranidbu teladi. Također, tjelesne mase, indeksi anamorfoznosti i indeksi razvijenosti trupa teladi nisu bile promijenjene pod utjecajem dodatka cijelog zrna kukuruza. Konverzija hrane bila je promijenjena pod utjecajem dodatka cijelog zrna kukuruza. Dužina trupa i dubina prsa su bile veće kod teladi hranjenih sa dodatkom cijelog zrna kukuruzaThe influence of adding whole corn graind to feed of calves on body weight, average daily gain, overall growth, average daily feed consumption, total feed consumption, feed conversion efficiency, body measurements, anamorphosis index and corporal index was investigated. The addition of whole grain corn to feed of calves had an effect on average daily gain and overall growth. Differences in daily and total feed consumption were not established with regard to the addition of whole grain corn to feed of calves. Also, the body weights, anamorphosis indexes and corporal indexes of the calves were not changed under the influence of the additionof whole grain corn. The feed conversion efficiency was changed under the influence oft he addition of whole grain corn. The length oft he trunk and the depth of the chest were greater in calves fed with the addition of whole grain corn
