Producción sostenible de carne de ovinos a partir de la harina del fruto y la hoja del árbol del pan (Artocarpus altilis) Sustainable production of sheep meat from the fruit and leaf meal of the breadfruit tree (Artocarpus altilis)

Un total de 27 corderos machos sin castrar, de la raza Pelibuey, en la etapa de crecimiento-ceba, con un peso inicial promedio de 19,5 kg, fueron suplementados a razón de 0 (T1); 12 (T2) y 20 (T3) g de pienso fruta del pan por kilogramo de PV. A los 90 días de la prueba el peso vivo final (T1:25,7; T2:28,2 y T3:29,6 kg) y la ganancia media diaria (T1:67; T2:97 y T3:113 g) se incrementaron significativamente (PA total of 27 uncastrated male lambs, of the Pelibuey breed, in the growing-fattening stage, with an average initial weight of 19,5 kg, were supplemented at a rate of 0 (T1); 12 (T2) and 20 (T3) g of breadfruit feed per kilogram of LW. Ninety days after the beginning of the test the final live weight (T1: 25,7; T2: 28,2 and T3: 29,6 kg) and the mean daily gain (T1: 67; T2:97 and T3: 113 g) increased significantly (P<0,001) as the level of the breadfruit feed increased; the same happened to the carcass weight (T1: 11,8; T2: 13,1 and T3: 14,0 kg), which differed for P
