supplements provided/given/fed (to grazing heifers)


Explanation:
Grass is cannot be a 'supplement' to the natural diet (= grass), so 'suplementadas' must refer to supplements over and above natural grazing; IOW, "omitindo-se "suplementadas?" --> No.

ingestive response to pasture feeding by heifers receiving supplements


Explanation:
Many examples of 'ingestive response':

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12857022
by F Halaweish - 2003 - Cited by 9 - Related articles
Rodent and ruminant ingestive response to flavonoids in Euphorbia esula ..

This is my interpretation. They are already receiving supplements, and the question now is what happens when they are also allowed to graze. There may be a shorter way of saying this, but this solution, is, I think, accurate. You want to make it clear that they are already on supplements and that pasture feeding is the new component.

Another way to think of it is: 'ingestive behavior of heifers receiving supplements when they are also allowed to graze'
