En este documento se destaca la importancia de las especies arbóreas empleadas en la alimentación de animales de interés zootécnico, y cómo las diferentes alternativas de conservación permiten suministrar un alimento de excelente calidad nutricional en periodo de escasez. Como es sabido, la alimentación eficiente es uno de los aspectos más importantes en la producción animal, puesto que de ésta depende no solo el rendimiento zootécnico de los animales, sino también la rentabilidad económica del productor. Para brindar una buena dieta, se deben suministrar alimentos con la cantidad necesaria de nutrientes en las condiciones físicas óptimas para qué los mismos sean utilizados metabólicamente de forma eficiente, y así poder obtener el máximo rendimiento en la producción. El suministro del alimento en forma no convencional permite explorar nuevas alternativas que brinden alimentos de buena calidad. En la búsqueda de fuentes alimenticias de bajo costo en el trópico, se ha incluido la evaluación de follajes arbóreos por su alta disponibilidad; la utilización de harinas de follajes de plantas se ha considerado como opción para la sustitución parcial o total de proteína proveniente principalmente de granos y cereales para la alimentación animal, siendo en la actualidad una de las estrategias de mayor investigación, en donde al facilitar su inclusión en las dietas balanceadas de los animales, se convierte en una alternativa económica que permitirá sustituir en parte el uso de alimento concentrado comercial. Especies arbóreas como el matarratón (Gliricidia sepium), leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala), guacimo (Guazuma ulmifolia), cayeno (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) y morera (Morus alba) son de interés para el productor debido a su potencial de producción (21.93-30.6 ton/ha/MS).

Insect meal derived from chironomid larvae and collected from aquatic environments was included in the feed of gilthead sea bream juveniles (75 ± 1.1 g) in a growth trial of 90 days. Three feeds, which were namely one control (L1) and two experimental diets (L2, L3), were analyzed and formulated as isonitrogenous (45%) and isolipidic (13%). In L1, the protein source was mainly soybean meal (32%), followed by fish meal (20%), wheat meal (20%), gluten corn (17%), and hemoglobin (11%). In L2, the proportion of soybean meal was increased (33.5%), followed by gluten corn (21%), wheat meal (14%), and hemoglobin (11%), whereas the fish meal source was reduced (15%) due to the inclusion of chironomids (5%). In L3, the proportion of fish meal was further reduced (8%) and that of chironomid meal was increased to 10% of the protein source. The L2 and L3 groups showed similar growth performances with respect to the L1 group. The feed conversion rate was favorable in all the groups, ranging from 1.18 (L1) to 1.22 (L3). Survival rates varied from 93.62% (L3) to 94.31% (L1). Feed palatability showed similar results for all diets. Although the inclusion of chironomid meal was used in small quantities, our results suggest a significant advantage in replacing 50% of the fish meal with the chironomid meal for growing gilthead sea bream fishes.

En el presente estudio se hace una descripción de la tecnología local de manejo de pasturas y se analizan las percepciones locales sobre el consumo de plantas por el ganado. Se estudia la clasificación local y valoración que los lugareños otorgan a las especies herbáceas y leñosas forrajeras presentes en los potreros. El estudio se realizó en la zona piloto del proyecto Pasturas Degradadas en Centroamérica (PD) en Muy Muy, Nicaragua. Los datos fueron obtenidos mediante diferentes técnicas de investigación cuantitativa y cualitativa. Se aplicaron técnicas cualitativas para recabar información en profundidad del acervo de conocimiento local respecto al uso de vegetación arbórea, arbustiva y herbácea en las fincas ganaderas. Se registró un total de 25 especies herbáceas forrajeras, siendo las variedades más reportadas la grama natural (Paspalum sp), pasto estrella (Cynodon plectostachyus K. Schum.) Pilg. y jaragua (Hyparrhenia rufa). De la misma manera, fueron identificadas las especies leñosas más frecuentes en las fincas ganaderas el guácimo (Guazuma ulmifolia Lam), madero negro (Gliricidia sepium Jacq.) y roble (Tabebuia rosea). Se concluye que el conocimiento de los productores es empírico y funcional. Esto significa que es derivado de la experiencia práctica y generalmente en función de las actividades realizadas por su propia voluntad o inducida por agentes externos

Background and Aim: The rearing of quails can have a stronger attraction for the breeders if we lower the cost prices by introducing by-products in their feed formulas. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the partial substitution of soybean meal by apricot kernel cake (AKC) in the diet of quails, applied either sequentially or during all phases of rearing, on their growth performances, carcass characteristics, and meat physicochemical composition. Materials and Methods: A total of 600 one-day-old quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica), with equal sex ratio and weighing on average 7±0.2 g, were randomly distributed in one control group and three experimental groups, the latter being designed according to the rate of application of AKC in either sequential or non-sequential mode in different rearing phases. Each group was divided into five replicates of 30 quails, randomly distributed according to either substitution rate of soybean meal by the AKC (0%, 10%, 20%, or 30%) or farming phase. Results: The average daily gain from the 1st to 45th days (average daily gain1–45d) was found to be the highest (4.24 g/d/subject, p=0.021) for the 30% AKC-supplemented feed lot in either starter or finish incorporation (DFTAA), having an optimum final live weight of 193.4 g (p=0.028), a lowest feed conversion ratio of 3.08 (p=0.001), and a daily feed intake of 860 g (p=0.01). Carcass yield was recorded the highest (74.4%, p=0.02) with an optimum meat protein level (30.6%, p=0.024) and the lowest fat content (2.26%, p=0.001) for the same group as well. Conclusion: The partial substitution of soybean meal by AKC in the quails' fattening feeding, during the finishing phase and for all rearing phases, led to a better growth performance, a better carcass yield, and an improved chemical composition of meat.

Eighty 3- to 4-wk-old crossbred pigs averaging 5.3 kg in weight at allotment were fed experimental diets during starting, growing and finishing phases to compare Tower rapeseed meal (00-RSM) and commercial rapeseed meal (C-RSM) as the sole or partial replacements for soybean meal (SBM). Barley and wheat were the main energy sources with varying amounts of animal tallow to provide isocaloric diets on a digestible energy basis. A 50/50 isonitrogenous combination of 00-RSM + SBM resulted in feed intake, daily gain and feed/gain ratio similar to results with pigs fed SBM as the sole protein supplement during the three phases. Complete substitution of SBM by 00-RSM resulted in reduction (P <.05) of feed intake during the starting phase as well as lower (P <.05) daily gain and inferior (P <.05) feed/gain ratio during the growing phase. Partial substitution of C-RSM for SBM resulted in reduction (P <.05) of feed intake during the starting and finishing phases. Complete replacement of SBM with C-RSM resulted in a depression (P <.05) of daily gain during all three phases of the experiment, inferior feed/gain ratio during the starting and growing phases compared with pigs fed the other four diets and lower (P <.05) feed intake during the starting and finishing phase compared with pigs fed the SBM diet. These findings were confirmed in a rat experiment. Carcass characteristics of pigs were not greatly affected by experimental treatments. A trend of lower digestibility of energy, nitrogen and amino acids was noted by complete replacement of SBM with either source of RSM in the pig and the rat experiments.
