• Subjects: 24 Pelibuey × Katahdin sheep
• Duration: 77 days
• Average temperature: 28.29°C during the trial period
• Temperature range: Minimum 20.1°C / Maximum 35.0°C
• Temperature-Humidity Index (THI):
o Average THI: 76.23 (classified as "Alert" level)
o Maximum THI: 86.09 (classified as "Danger" or "Emergency" level)
Glycozyme 0.4% was administered under conditions of high heat stress during the summer. |

Key Note:
Under high-temperature and high-humidity conditions, sheep fed with 0.4% Glycozyme showed a 15% increase in total weight gain, a 20.21% increase in average daily gain (ADG), and a 10.73% improvement (reduction) in FCR.
This demonstrates Glycozyme's significant effectiveness in alleviating heat stress and improving feed efficiency. |
