Metabolic activity and the performance of ram hogs when consuming probiotic and sorption additives

Abstract

Abstract The question arises of a rational method of feeding small cattle, which would ensure a high rate of their growth, development and production of meat products due to the fact that in recent years in Russia more and more attention has been paid to the development of sheep husbandry. It is economically feasible to use feed additives of various actions for this purpose, which determined the relevance of the topic of our study. The task was set to consider the effect of the sorbent Glauconite and the sorption-probiotic preparation Biogumitel in the diet of sheep of the Romanovskaya breed on the morphological and biochemical parameters of blood, as well as meat productivity. Scientific and economic experience was carried out in a farm located on the territory of the Volga Federal District of the Russian Federation on four groups of rams. Studies have shown that feeding the presented additives did not adversely affect the studied parameters. In addition, it was found that test rams gave higher reliable indicators of meat productivity when feeding Biogumitel and Glauconit supplements together at a dose of 0.1 g per 1 kg of live weight each. Further research is planned to be devoted to studying the quality of meat products, as well as adipose tissue of various localization.
