Article Synopsis
- This research aimed to assess how varying levels of concentrate in diets with cactus Opuntia Stricta affect the performance of lactating Girolando cows.
- The study involved 10 multiparous Girolando cows, testing a control diet and four diets with increasing concentrate levels (20%, 24%, 28%, and 32%) alongside cactus and forage.
- Results indicated that higher concentrate levels led to increased nutrient intake and milk yield, with a recommendation for a 32% concentrate level for optimal milk production in these cows.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the replacement effect of wheat bran with spineless cactus and urea in heifers. Twenty-four heifers with an average initial weight of 185 ± 13 kg were used in this experiment. Four levels of spineless cactus corrected with urea and ammonium sulfate (9:1) were studied: 0, 33, 66, and 100 % replacement with wheat bran.
