Effects of Oleic Acid Enriched Oil Supplemented Diets on Feeding Behaviors in Cross-bred Brahman cattle.Two experiments were conducted to compare feeding behavior in the free choice of 3 kinds of oil supplemented diets, and in 2 kinds of oil supplemented diets in beef cattle.. Of the two groups, the first group received approximately 6 kg/d of concentrate as a basal diet, whilst the other was a free choice group which was fed the same quantity of basal diet as the control,but 1 kg basal diet was supplemented with 35 g per meal of corn oil (CO), palm oil (PO), and rice bran oil (RO) respectively by top dressing.Results of the free choice test showed that the DMI of CO significantly decreased during the final 3 weeks of feeding ( p<0.05). The highest percentage of total frequency of the behaviors was eating, followed by switches and visits.The highest percentage of total frequency of the behaviors was eating, followed by switches and visits. In the 2nd experiment, the oil supplemented diets affected the percentage of visits (p<0.01) and drinking (p<0.05).
