Potencial produtivo de novilhas da raça "Pantaneira" alimentadas com fenos de baixa qualidade Productive potential of heifers breed "Pantaneira" fed low-quality hay

The cattle of breed “Pantaneira” are descended from a genetic group in the European naturalized on Pantanal Biome and although in the past dominating the landscape of the Pantanal, currently remains a small hundred of the animals, putting this species at risk of extinction. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the development of heifers breed “Pantaneira”, kept in confinement and fed with hay (Brachiaria brizantha cv. Piata, Panicum maximum cv. Massai and Stylosantes capitata/macrocephala cv. Campo Grande)
