dc.description.abstract [EN] In the present study molasses-blocks, including different amounts of cereal by-products and cement, have been tested in order to verify their effectiveness as supplementary feeds for forage fed rabbits. The tour feeding treatments were tested on 180 New Zealand White rabbits of 37, 65, 80 days of age during two trials. Molasses-blocks were formulated with 4 or 1 O % of cement on DM (84 and 810) and provided to the animals in addition to fresh alfalfa. The two control groups were fed fresh alfalfa alone (AA) or an industrial balanced pellet (IP). The higher cement level in block 810 induced the animals to reduce its ingestion (P<0.05) that was compensated by an higher consumption of alfalfa. All the treatments produced higher daily gains in comparison to alfalfa alone (30.4 and 30.5 vs. 17.8 g/d for 84, 810 and AA respectively at 37 days of age ; 32.5 and 25.2 vs. 21.8 g/d at 65 days of age ; 33.5 and 29.9 vs. 21.9 g/d at 80 days of age). The differences were always significant for 84 and IP (P<b.05). The increased performances produced by blocks were lower than the ones produced by IP control, but the results were good enough so that the differences were non significant in the post-weaning period and near to the slaughtering age. The results obtained may encourage the use of molasses-blocks as supplementary feeds to increase the growing performances of meat rabbits in Developing Countries. es_ES
dc.description.abstract [FR] Dans cette étude, des blocs mélassés comportant différentes quantités de sous produits céréaliers et de ciment, ont été testés afin de vérifier leur efficacité en tant que supplément de l'alimentation de lapins nourrit de fourrages. Au cours de deux traitements, tes quatre aliments expérimentaux ont été testés sur 180 lapins Néo-Zélandais 8/ancs agés de 37, 65 et 80 jours. Les blocs mélassés contenait 4 ou 1 O % de ta MS de ciment (84 et 810) et était distribués aux lapins en plus de /uzerne fraiche. Les deux groupes témoins n'ont rer;u que de la luzerne fraiche (AA) ou un granulé industnel equilibré (IP). Les animaux ont réduit /eur ingestion (P<0,05) du bloc B1ó qui contenait le taux le plus étevé de ciment et compensés par une consommation élevée de luzerne. Tous les traitements ont donnés des gains moyens journaliers plus élevés comparés a la luzerne seule (30,4 et 30i5 vs 17,8 g/d pour 84 et AA respectivement a 37 jours d'age; 32,5 et 25,2 vs 21,8 g/d a 65 jours d'age; 33,5 et 29,9 vs 21,9 g!d a 80 jours d'age). Les différences entre 84 et IP étaient toujours significatives (P<0.05). Les performances améliorées obtenues avec les blocs restaient inférieures a cel/es obtenues avec la groupe témoin IP, mais les résultats étaient assez satisfaisants puisque tes différences n'étaient pas sipnificatives dans la periode d'apres sevrage ou proche de l'age de l'abbatage. Les résultats obtenus peuvent encourager l'utilisation de b/ocs mélassés comme supplément d'alimentation pour augmenter les performances de croissance des tapins de chair dans les pays industrialisés.
