alimentación animal, CeltisResumen
El propósito en esta revisión bibliográfica es investigar el potencial forrajero del género Celtis en la alimentación de los animales, teniendo en cuenta su valor nutricional y el uso en sistemas de producción animal. Encontramos que existe información limitada del uso de esta planta en la alimentación animal. Celtis contiene altos niveles de proteína cruda (hasta 24.3 %), digestibilidad y perfiles minerales que cubren requerimientos esenciales en diversos animales domésticos. Es un recurso forrajero utilizado en distintas regiones, principalmente zonas áridas y semiáridas en continentes como América, África e India. El aprovechamiento alimenticio también ha sido empleado naturalmente por distintas especies de fauna silvestre. El género Celtis tiene un papel importante en la nutrición animal, sin embargo, hacen falta más estudios que amplíen y profundicen los conocimientos sobre esta especie en la alimentación animal.
