Objective: Evaluate the productive performance of rabbits fed alfalfa- and white clover-based diets.Design/ methodology/ approach: Rabbits can consume high-fiber diets. Therefore,this study evaluated a white clover-based diet (Diet 1) and an alfalfa-based diet (Diet 2).The experiment was carried out during the Fall-Winter season of 2018. This study used111 rabbits (males and females), weaned at 31 days of age. Diets were randomlyassigned to 20 cages, four to six animals per cage. In total, 56 rabbits received Diet 1and 55 Diet 2. All animals had free access to feed and water during the 35-day growthperiod. The weekly recorded response variables were live weight (LW), daily weight gain(DWG), and feed conversion (FC). At 67 days of age, hot carcass yield (HCY) and coldcarcass yield (CCY) were determined.Results: At the end of the fattening period (31 to 66 days of age), there were nosignificant differences between the two experimental groups. The results for Diet 1 and2, respectively, were the following: LW = 2012±36 and 1960±37 g, DWG = 32.2±1.572and 28.4±1.60 g/animal, FC = 3.3±0.2 and 3.4±0.2 g/g, HCY = 48.0±0.5 and 55.9±0.6%,and CCY = 48.1±0.5 and 55.8±0.7%.Limitations/ implications: Due to the lack of significant differences (P?0.05), furtherstudies are required to better understand these legumes.Findings/ conclusions: White clover could completely replace alfalfa in rabbit diets.
