The study was conducted at the Laboratory of Minor Animals of the La Molina National Agrarian University between September and November 2017. The purpose of the research was to analyze and compare different feeding systems in the growth of guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus). The plant-based hydroponic green fodder (HGF) corresponded to barley (Hordeum vulgare) and the control to fresh maize forage (chala). The work was carried out for 68 days, from the production of the HGF, using 80 improved male guinea pigs of 14 ± 5 days of age, with an adaptation of five days before the beginning of the experiment for seven weeks. The animals were randomly distributed in five treatments with four repetitions each. The treatments were: integral balanced feed (T1), only HGF (T2), only chala (T3), mixed balanced feed plus HGF (T4) and the control, which consisted of mixed balanced feed and chala (T5). The results reaffirmed that the feeding systems that only supplied forage (T2 and T3) are significantly inefficient (p0.05) in the various productive parameters between mixed and integral feeding, nor between the use of HGF and maize (chala). Therefore, the barley HGF can be used as a substitute for chala in mixed feeding systems for guinea pigs in the growth stage. It is necessary to consider the costs of alternative forage, the balance, and the value of the guinea pig in each stage of production and place of rearing, since the integral option was, in general, the one with the best technical and economic result.
