Small Ruminant Minerals - Animal Science
ASWeb-080. Small Ruminant Series Minerals by Dr. Rick Machen Associate Professor & Extension livestock Specialist Texas Agric ultur al Exte nsio n Service, Uvalde As mentioned in previous articles, the nutrient requirements of goats are not well defined - certainly not as well defined as those for beef and dairy cattle, sheep, swine or poultry. Much of the research with goats has involved dairy goats in confinement-fed conditions. Very little work has been done with free grazing goats. To determine nutrient requirements, research scientists must create an artificial environment wherein goats are deficient in the particular nutrient of interest. Then, under very controlled conditions, the nutrient of interest is added to the diet in increments until growth, lactation or the physiological response per additional increment of nutrient is negligible.
