The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of cutting and hydroponic oats (Arrenatherium elatius) on the productive indices in the feeding of guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus). A DBCA (completely randomized block design) was used, where 5 treatments were carried out with 4 repetitions and 5 animals per repetition for which it was necessary to acquire a total of 100 guinea pigs of one month, 50 males and 50 females. performed an analysis of variance (ADEVA) and significant Turkey tests at 5%. The treatments were distributed as follows: T1 (100% cut and 0% FVH), T2 (75% cut and 25% FVH), T3 (50% cut and 50% FVH), (75% cut oats and 25% FVH), T5 (25% cut and 25% FVH), T5 (100% FVH and 0% cut). The study variables were feed consumption, final weight and weight gain, mortality, carcass yield, feed conversion. The T1 and T2 showed significant differences each one with a mean of 332.41g and 329.69 g placing them in rank A of food consumption. In the evaluation of the productive indices, the best feed conversion was the T3 treatment, yielding an average of 0.86 ICA, likewise the T3 obtained an average of 662.23 g in the weight gain which was located in the range A, unlike of T4 and T1 with 588.05 and 575.15 g respectively had an AB rank. Regarding carcass performance, they did not show significant differences and mortality in the same way. Finally, in the economic analysis, Q5 reached a better benefit / cost ratio for each dollar invested, obtaining a recovery of 0.83 cents; concluding in this way that the use of FVH improves the performance of the productive parameters and a decrease in the total costs in raising guinea pigs.
