Common Micronutrient Deficiencies in Cow Farming and Suggestions for Supplementation
1. Cobalt
Cobalt deficiency symptoms in dairy cows are actually mainly vitamin B12 deficiency, which is an essential element for the synthesis of vitamin B12 by rumen microorganisms.
It causes loss of appetite and emaciation in cows, which only show progressive emaciation and, although feed intake may be normal, are unable to use the energy in their feed efficiently.
It makes cows anemic, vitamin B12 is involved in erythropoiesis, and deficiency can cause anemia.
Causes the cow to have a rough coat, similar to copper deficiency, which is shaggy and dull.
Can cause cows to produce a dramatic drop in milk.
Products recommended for Cobalt supplementation
2.Zinc
Zinc deficiency in cows can lead to soft and cracked hoof shells, which can easily cause laminitis and foot rot, affecting cows' standing and walking, resulting in pain and decreased milk production.
Zinc deficiency in cows can lead to abnormal skin keratinization, dermatitis, cracking, and rough, faded, and easy shedding of fur.
Zinc deficiency in dairy cows can affect the synthesis of sex hormones, resulting in inconspicuous estrus and decreased conception rate.
Zinc deficiency in cows can lead to reduced immunity and susceptibility to diseases such as mastitis.
Zinc deficiency in dairy cattle causes growth retardation in young cattle.
Products recommended for Zinc supplementation
3. Selenium and VE(both synergistic effects, often considered together)
Se deficiency and VE in dairy cattle cause white myopathy, the most typical symptom, which mainly affects calves and young cattle. Myocardial and skeletal muscle degeneration manifested as muscle weakness, stiffness, dyspnea, and sudden death.
Se deficiency and VE in dairy cows resulted in a significantly higher incidence of postpartum fetal coat stasis.
Se deficiency and VE in cows can lead to early embryonic death, abortion, and weak calving.
Selenium deficiency and VE in cows cause mastitis, impaired immune function, and more susceptible mammary glands to infection with a longer duration.
Se deficiency and VE in cows result in growth retardation and poor development of calves.
Products recommended for Selenium and VE supplementation
4.Copper
Copper deficiency in dairy cows causes anemia, which, although less common than iron deficiency anemia, is necessary for iron absorption and hemoglobin synthesis, resulting in anemia, pale mucous membranes.
Copper deficiency in cows can lead to abnormal coat, which is rough, shaggy, and discoloured (especially in black-haired cows, which can turn rusty red or grey).
Copper deficiency in dairy cows causes bone disease, skeletal dysplasia, susceptibility to fractures, and enlarged joints.
Copper deficiency in cows can lead to reproductive disorders, delayed estrus, low conception rates, and even abortion.
Copper deficiency in cows can cause diarrhea, persistent diarrhea, especially in calves.
Decreased immunity: poor resistance to disease.
Products recommended for Copper supplementation
5.Iodine
Iodine deficiency in cows can cause goiter, with a markedly enlarged thyroid gland visible in the neck (commonly known as "big neck disease").
Iodine deficiency in cows can cause reproductive disorders, with irregular estrus, low conception rates, abortion, and stillbirth in heifers.
Iodine deficiency in cows results in weak, hairless, or stillborn calves, hypothyroid, and slow growth in newborn calves.
Iodine deficiency in dairy cows can lead to decreased milk production, reduced basal metabolic rate, and affected overall performance.
Products recommended for Iodine supplementation
6.Manganese
Mn deficiency in dairy cows causes reproductive impairment and is the main problem. It is characterized by delayed estrus or absence of estrus, irregular ovulation, low conception rate, and early embryo absorption.
Manganese deficiency in cows results in skeletal deformities, with calves born with enlarged joints, short brittle leg bones, and an unstable gait (known as "ankle hyperextension").
Mn deficiency in dairy cows causes metabolic disorders affecting carbohydrate and fat metabolism.
