description At the Quindio’s University experimental farm ”Benga|a", located in the municipality of Filandia, Quindio, the weight increase in rabbits for meat that were fed on different fodder was evaluated. The four treatments corresponded to the following ensilagesz imperial grass (Axonopus scoparius), imperial grass mixed with meadow buttercup (Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.), imperial grass mixed with ramie (Boehmeria nivea), and imperial grass mixed with morus/mulberry (/\/Iorus alba). The evaluation was applied on four probing groups consisting of five rabbits each. The group fed on imperial grass and meadow buttercup gained the highest increase of weight (2389 g in average), whereas the group fed on simply fresh fodder gained a lower mean weight 0f 2021 g. The food sources that better met the nutritional parameters of the rabbits were the following ensilages in due order: meadow buttercup, morus/mulberry, and ramie.

En la Granja Experimental Bengala, de la Universidad del Quindío, ubicada en el municipio de Filandia, Quindío, se evaluó la ganancia de peso en conejos tipo carne cuando son alimentados con diferentes ensilajes: pasto imperial (Axonopus scoparius), pasto imperial mezclado con botón de oro (Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.), pasto imperial con ramio (Boehmeria nivea) y pasto imperial con morera (Morus alba). Se valoraron cuatro tratamientos en cuatro grupos de cinco conejos cada uno. Los conejos alimentados con ensilaje de pasto imperial y botón de oro fueron los que obtuvieron el mayor peso (2389 g, en promedio), mientras que los alimentados con solo forrajes frescos obtuvieron un peso promedio de 2021 g. Las fuentes nutricionales que mejor responden en la alimentación de conejos son, en su orden: ensilaje de botón de oro, ensilaje de morera y ensilaje de ramio.
