Effects on Growth Performance Parameters, Carcass Traits, Meat Nutrimental Quality and Intramuscular Fatty Acid Profile of Rabbits Fed with Diets with Avocado Waste (Persea americana Mill)

The objective of this paper was to evaluate the effect four levels (0%, 4.32%, 8.39% or 12.25%) avocado waste (AW) included in diets on productive performance, carcass characteristics and meat nutritional quality fattening rabbits. For that, one hundred twenty male rabbits (New Zealand × California; 945 ± 47 g initial body weight) were fed over 28 days, randomly distributed treatments (T) (T1 = 0, T2 4.32, T3 8.39 T4 12.25% AW as fed). chemical fatty acids profiles evaluated Longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL) muscle. with reported best parameters (p < 0.05), greater 0.05) dissectible adipose tissue higher polyunsaturated (PUFAs) n-3 content than control meat. It is concluded that inclusion growing–finishing rabbit’s diet can modify meat, reducing n-6/n-3 ratio thrombogenic index.
