Effect of Lippia palmeri S. Watson during goat suckling and growth
The goat kids raising is an important part of goat farms, since its development provides replacements for the dairy herd or the sale of meat. Therefore, a growth test of goats kids was carried out and the addition of oregano Lippia palmeri S. Watson and the synchronization of nutrients in the diets of the mothers was evaluated to determine its effect on the growth of their offsprings. Seventheen goats kids were valued which were those born under the 4 diets (treatments) consumed by their mothers, divided in 6 goat kids in (T1, ASYNC with ORE), 5 goat kids in (T2, ASYNC without ORE), 3 goat kids in (T3, SYNC without ORE) and 3 goat kids in (T4, SYNC with ORE), where the variables of weight gain (kg) and daily milk consumption (kg) were measured during 60 days. No significant differences (p>0.05) were found between treatments, showing an average daily weight gain in T1 (ASYNC with ORE= 0.0895±0.018 kg), T2 (ASYNC without ORE= 0.0892±0.026 kg), T3 (SYNC without ORE= 0.0934±0.035 kg) and T4 (SYNC with ORE= 0.118±0.026 kg) and average daily milk consumption in T1 (ASYNC with ORE= 0.509±0.240 kg), T2 (ASYNC without ORE= 0.580±0.205 kg), T3 (SYNC without ORE= 0.553±0.190 kg) and T4 (SYNC with ORE= 0.717±0.202 kg), without having a treatment that significantly outperformed the others, and a significant and positive correlation (r=0.879, p=0.0001) was also shown between the two variables studied.
