RELATO DE EXPERIÊNCIA DE PROJETO DE ENSINO: BOAS PRÁTICAS NA BOVINOCULTURA DE CORTE

Abstract

Good management practices, associated with zootechnical control and the application of techniques on properties dedicated to animal production, play an essential role in productive efficiency, animal welfare and beef quality. In view of this, this project aimed to provide students with practical experience on the appropriate management of beef cattle herds. To this end, activities such as planning the division of paddocks with electric fences, pasture management, cleaning of water troughs, sanitary management, supplementation and rational management were developed, carried out at the Farm School of IF Goiano – Campos Belos Campus. The execution of these activities allowed the application of technical knowledge, the development of practical skills and the appreciation of teamwork. In addition to reinforcing theoretical learning, this approach contributed directly to the improvement of the herd's production rates and to the strengthening of the beef cattle sector.
