ABSTRACT

In this experiment, 27 crossbred steers (average body weight 250 kg) were fed a diet with
clinoptilolite (CLN), a natural zeolite, substituted at 0 be regarded as control , 2.5% as (T1) and
5% as (T2) of the diet dry matter. The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of natural
zeolite on daily gain and carcass characteristics in Holstein steers. The experiment lasted for 210
days. Average daily gain of steers in T3 diets were highest (P
