Implementación de un sistema alternativo de alimentación en la producción caprina.

Abstract

This business practice was carried out at the Villa Marina Experimental Farm of the University of Pamplona in the goat production system. The objective was the implementation of Hydroponic Green Forage (FVH) as a feeding alternative in this production system, evaluating variables such as; body condition, weight gain and feed acceptability, with results that there was no improvement in body condition, with weight gains of up to 150 g/day in most of the animals the first three weeks of implementation and the last two. weeks all the animals lost acquired weight, but even with this, the acceptability was favorable on the part of the animals, concluding that the pathological factor and possibly the digestibility of the forage was not the best and the animals were not able to assimilate it, which hindered the use of food, in the same way the practice contributed with the acquisition of knowledge and the experiences lived in the labor field.
