Valor nutricional de forraje de avena (Avena sativa) con diferentes tratamientos de fertilización

Oats (Avena sativa) is a grass cultivated as fodder for cattle feed. The objective of this work was to evaluate the nutritional value of turquoise oat forage variety with different fertilization treatments. Planting was carried out in the experimental field of the Tecnológico Nacional de México campus Valle del Guadiana in Ejido Villa Montemorelos, Durango in January 2021. Four fertilization treatments were evaluated: Control (without fertilization), Chemical, Tea of manure and NB Soil (commercial organic fertilizer). The ash content (CEN), crude protein (PC), ethereal extract (EE), crude fiber (FC), nitrogen-free extract (ELN), neutral detergent fiber (FDN), acid detergent fiber (FDA) and lignin (L). A completely randomized design with three repetitions and a comparison of means with Tukey's test (?=0.05) was used. Significant differences were found only for EE, PC and L between treatments. Both in the EE and in the PC the chemical treatment presented the highest values (3.86 % and 5.84 %, respectively) while for L the NB Soil treatment registered the highest value (12.48 %). The nutritional value of oat forage is not negatively affected by the application of unconventional fertilizers, and may be an option for its use in this type of crop. e2026-1. https://doi.org/10.21929/abanicoboletin/2026.5
