Performance of steers grazing star grass supplemented with multi‐nutritional blocks

摘要

Low efficiency of animal production under grazing conditions in the Mexican tropical area has required we look for supplementation alternatives in order to improve production.It has been suggested that supplementing with multi‐nutritional blocks offered in plastic bins could be an option,as it covers animal nutritional requirements and there is less waste of the product.Therefore,the objective of this study was to evaluate live‐weight changes of grazing steers supplemented with multi‐ nutritional block under Mexican tropical conditions.
