Abstract(s)
A ranicultura é uma atividade agropecuária sem expressão no nosso país. Motivado pela
crescente procura de proteína animal alternativa, a ranicultura intensiva tornou-se pioneira no Brasil.
Perante a evidência de que existe muito pouca informação técnico-científica reunida sobre a
ranicultura, o objetivo deste trabalho foi fazer uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema. Deste modo, irá
ser abordado todo o ciclo produtivo da rã-touro americana (Lithobates catesbeianus), desde a fase de
girino, passando por todas as fases de metamorfose, pré-engorda e engorda, evidenciando todos os
fatores bióticos e abióticos que influenciam o nível de desempenho. Salienta-se também o uso racional
de medidas de biossegurança que visam controlar e sobretudo prevenir o aparecimento de patologias
num ranário.
Serão ainda abordados temas como instalações e métodos de produção, a qualidade da água,
tecnologia e segurança alimentar no abate e utilização dos subprodutos.
O sucesso da ranicultura depende essencialmente do maneio alimentar e reprodutivo.
Frog farming is a non-existent animal production system in our country. Driven by the growing demand for an alternative source of animal protein, intensive frog production has become pioneer in Brazil. Given the evidence that there is very little technical and scientific information gathered on frog production, the objective was to make a literature review on the topic. Thus, the production cycle of the American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) will be addressed throughout this review, from the tadpole stage, going through all the stages of metamorphosis, pre-fattening and fattening, showing all biotic and abiotic factors influencing the level of performance. Rational uses of bio-security measure to control and above all prevent the occurrence of pathologies in frog production are also pointed out. Topics such as facilities and types of production, water quality, slaughter technology and safety and utilization of by-products will also be discussed The success of frog production depends firstly on food and reproductive management.
