Abstract

To ensure continued high milk production and good health is essential that dairy cows receive adequate supplies of phosphorus in their food. For many this essential element. If the farmer fails to provide the correct form of mineral supplement the cows cannot produce milk to full capacity, or they deplete their bodily reserves with resultant ill-health. In either case the farmer suffers financial loss.
