Resumo
No âmbito do estágio curricular do 2º ano do Mestrado em Engenharia Zootécnica, foi realizado um relatório com base numa exploração de bovinos de leite, na freguesia de Torre de Coelheiros, Évora.
No decorrer deste relatório para além de fazer uma breve descrição do setor leiteiro em Portugal, também se caracteriza a exploração, as raças utilizadas e uma descrição de todas as tarefas desenvolvidas durante o estágio.
Durante os 3 meses de estágio foi possível participar em todas as tarefas desenvolvidas no dia-a-dia de uma exploração de bovinos leiteiros. Realizou-se uma descrição da dieta de todo o efetivo, no entanto, a dieta das vacas em produção é que foi objeto de análise.
O objetivo deste relatório é colocar em prática os assuntos lecionados no mestrado e, analisando o maneio geral, apresentar propostas de melhorias relativamente às falhas ao nível da reprodução, nutrição e instalações que foram detetadas ao longo do estágio na exploração Joaquim Cachopas.
Desta forma, foi importante identificar as maiores problemáticas da exploração e perceber de que forma se pode atuar para aumentar a rentabilidade e a durabilidade dos animais.
As part of the curricular internship of the Master in Zootechnical Engineering, a report was made based on a dairy cattle farm, located on Torre de Coelheiros, Évora. During this report, in addition to making a brief description of the dairy sector in Portugal, the farm, the breeds used, and all the tasks carried out during the internship are also characterized.
