Productivity of young animals of cattle at adding triticale into ration

Abstract

Goal. To investigate the efficiency of feeding grain triticale to large cattle in the composition of various grain mixtures and the quality of this product. Methods. Three groups of bulls were formed: I group (control) consumed grain mix No. 1 (without triticale); II (experimental) - grain mix № 2 (20% triticale instead of wheat); II (experimental) - mixture of seeds № 3 (40% by weight instead of wheat). Results Replacement in the mixture of grain mixes by 40% by weight of wheat germ by 20-40% of the yielding triticale for fattening Bugites reduces their daily average increments in live weight and increases feed costs. Conclusions Feeding animals with grain mix with the addition of 20 to 40% by weight of the triticale, instead of the equivalent quantity of wheat germ, for the production of beef is economically unjustified.
