Digestibility of diets with growing levels of defatted coconut flour in growing rabbits

In order to evaluate the influence of defatted coconut flour on the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) of nutrients for growing rabbits, five diets were elaborated with increasing levels of defatted coconut flour (0 %, 10 %, 20 %, 30 % and 40 %). The diets were given to 50 Chinchilla rabbits,...

description In order to evaluate the influence of defatted coconut flour on the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) of nutrients for growing rabbits, five diets were elaborated with increasing levels of defatted coconut flour (0 %, 10 %, 20 %, 30 % and 40 %). The diets were given to 50 Chinchilla rabbits, distributed in a totally randomized design, with an experimental period of 12 days. The ADC of the dry matter (MS), gross protein (PB), gross fiber (BFC), organic matter (MO) and ash (Czs) were determined. The inclusion of defatted coconut flour into the rabbit’s diet had not effect on the ADC of MS, with average values close to 60 %. High values of ADC of PB were observed (74.92 % and 77.86 %), which decreased for levels of defatted coconut flour of 30 % and 40 %. The ADC of BFC behaved similar to the PB, with mean values between 44.66 % and 49.80 %. The rabbits showed a good use of the ash content with ADC from 66.80 % to 72.99 %, which were more elevated for diets with 0 % and 10 % of defatted coconut flour. The results indicate that the rabbits carried out a high absorption of the inorganic compounds.

Para evaluar la influencia de la harina de coco desgrasada sobre los coeficientes de digestibilidad aparente (CDA) de los nutrientes para conejos en crecimiento, fueron elaboradas cinco dietas con niveles crecientes de esta (0, 10, 20, 30 y 40 %), las cuales fueron suministradas a 50 animales de la raza Chinchilla, con un diseño completamente aleatorizado. Fueron determinados los CDA de la Materia seca (MS), Proteína bruta (PB), Fibra bruta (FB), Materia orgánica (MO) y las Cenizas (Czs). El período experimental fue de 12 días. La inclusión de la harina de coco desgrasada en la dieta no afectó el CDA de la MS, con valores promedios próximos al 60 %. Se encontraron altos CDA para la PB (74.92 y 77.86 %), los cuales decrecieron para los niveles de inclusión del 30 % y el 40 %. Los CDA de la FB presentaron tendencia similar a los de la PB, con valores medios entre 44.66 y 49.80 %. Los conejos mostraron un buen aprovechamiento del contenido de cenizas, con CDA de 66.80 % a 72.99 %, superiores para los niveles de inclusión del 0 % y 10 %. Los resultados indican que los conejos realizaron una elevada absorción de los compuestos inorgánicos.
