Sunflower and palm cake as supplemental fatty acid sources to feedlot lambs

The sunflower cake and palm cake are two by-products of the biodiesel industry with different profiles of fatty acids (FA). The sunflower cake has 60% of unsaturated FA and the palm cake is rich in medium-chain fatty acids. Feeding both sources to ruminants may increase FA digestibility and improve...

Zusammenfassung:The sunflower cake and palm cake are two by-products of the biodiesel industry with different profiles of fatty acids (FA). The sunflower cake has 60% of unsaturated FA and the palm cake is rich in medium-chain fatty acids. Feeding both sources to ruminants may increase FA digestibility and improve energy intake. Here, an abstract of an article by de Souza et al evaluating the interaction of the dietary supplementation of sunflower cake and palm cake on DMI and blood parameters of feedlot lambs is presented.
