Abstract

Ten villages adopted by Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University were selected for the study of mineral profile in dairy animals. Samples of various feeds and fodders were collected with detail information of feeding practices in area. The requirement of Cu, Mn and Zn for potential production were calculated which were compared with actual availability of the minerals. The outcome of the study revealed significant low level of Cu and Zn in Diet while Mn was in good amount. To overcome deficiency of Cu and Zn, supplementation level were suggested.

Keywords: Feed; Minerals; Production; Supplementation.
