Main Article Content
Abstract
CP, respectively. DM, CP and EM intake was superior for the commercial concentrate with 6,849 g, 1,205 g and 849.98 MJ/kg of DM, respectively. For the increase of liveweight, the best values belonged to the control treatment and to 12% of HA inclusion, with 2,276.11 and 2,258.78g, respectively. Something similar occurred for total mean gain with 27.32 g for CC and 27.05 g for the 12% inclusion treatment. Azolla meal has a suitable chemical composition to be used in the feeding of rabbits. The inclusion of up to 12% of this meal in the ration for rabbits did not affect the productive indicators evaluated.
Key words: feeding, composition, conversion, gain, weight
