Empleo de probióticos en la nutrición y alimentación de cabras lecheras.

Abstract

The objective of this research project was to evaluate the usefulness of the addition of probiotics in the feeding of dairy calves. It was carried out by searching bibliographic information in different scientific databases such as university repositories: Escuela Superior Polytechnic School of Chimborazo (ESPOCH), University of Cuenca (UCUENCA), Central University of Ecuador (UCE), Technical University of Cotopaxi (UTC), University of the Armed Forces (ESPE), third and fourth level degree papers, journals of scientific interest. This was carried out with the purpose of collecting enough data to deepen the subject matter. The type of study was comparative, and the results were shown using the Excel program. The productive variables consulted were: milk production (kg) and milk composition (kg), The most relevant results of the investigations indicated that the productive behavior in dairy goats due to the effect of the addition of probiotics both yeast and bacteria did not present significant differences in any of the investigations obtaining for milk production an average of 2.07 kg less in unsupplemented goats vs. 2.13 in goats supplemented with Sorbial probiotic, for milk composition 2, 89 kg less in unsupplemented goats versus 2.92 kg in dairy goats supplemented with Sorbial probiotic, therefore it can be concluded that the addition of probiotics in the diet had no significant effects on productive parameters in dairy goats, so it is recommended to determine the most appropriate times for supplementation, mixing and proper administration of probiotic supplements, this is an important consideration to be addressed in future studies to confirm adequate intake.
