Abstract

This project aims to evaluate the effect of different levels and sources of nitrogen on the protein metabolism and urea kinetics in Nelore cattle in feedlot receiving high grain diets. It will assess the intake and digestibility of nutrients, ruminal and blood parameters, the kinetics of urea, the efficiency of use of amino acids and nitrogen excretion in feces and urine. The results of this study will draw up nutritional strategies to optimize animal performance with reduction of feeding costs and environmental impacts of feedlot cattle production in highlighting the increasing N use efficiency in high-grain diets. In addition, this study may contribute for future research that evaluate animal performance across the different strategies proposed.
