ABSTRACT
This study was aimed to examine the nutritional efficiency of the
balanced supply of flavonoids from the crude or ethanol extract of brown propolis
on behaviour, productive performance and carcass traits of lambs in feedlot.
Twenty four male lambs were divided into 4 groups (6 animals in each) and fed
diet supplemented with: crude brown propolis [13 g/kg dry matter (DM)], propolis
ethanol extract (15 ml/kg DM), sodic monensin (0.032 g/kg DM) – positive control,
or diet without any enrichment (negative control). The basic diet was a total
mixed ration with roughage:concentrate ratio of 500:500 (w/w). In animals receiving
crude propolis (P < 0.05) DM intake was higher than in animals fed sodic
monensin in the diet. The use of feed additives did not affect feeding behaviour
and lambs performance. Carcass yield was lower (P < 0.05) in lambs receiving
diet with sodic monensin than in lambs fed diets with crude propolis. Also
the propolis extract addition into diet decreased carcass yield in comparison to
control group. Propolis addition altered the fatty acid profile of meat reducing
saturated fatty acid content and increasing unsaturated one in comparison to
control group. So, brown propolis supplementation can influence lamb carcass
traits and meat quality; however the form of propolis is an important factor. The
possible addition of propolis into animal feed can be important from human nutrition
point of view.
