Abstract

ABSTRACT: Most trace minerals (TM) are fed above dairy cow requirements in commercial herds but their fate and effects on dairy cows have not been well documented. In this study, we evaluated the effects of feeding short-term sulfate TM above recommendations on apparent total-tract digestibility of nutrients, rumen fermentation characteristics, serum concentrations, and milk yield and composition, as well as milk, fecal, and urinary TM excretion in midlactation dairy cows. Eight multiparous Holstein cows with an average body weight (± SD) of 684 ± 29 kg at 82 ± 10 DIM in a quadruple 2 × 2 cros
