El presente ensayo tuvo como objetivo evaluar el efecto de la inclusión de morera (Morus alba) en la dieta de cabritos lactantes, sobre la ganancia de peso y características de la canal. Este ensayo se realizó en la localidad de Rinconada de Maipú, Región Metropolitana. Se utilizaron 45 cabritos de dos genotipos: Anglo-Nubian x Criollo y Boer x Criollo; los que fueron distribuidos al azar en dos tratamientos, uno suplementado con heno de alfalfa (T0) y el otro con morera (T1), durante un período de 9 semanas con estabulación nocturna. Durante el día permanecieron con sus madres y en pradera natural. La cantidad de morera y heno suministrado se ajustaron a los requerimientos de los cabritos. / In order to evaluate the effects of including mulberry (Morus alba) in the lactating kids diet, on live weight gain and carcass characteristics, a research was carried out at La Rinconada Experimental Station (Metropolitan Region).
