Abstract

In animal nutrition, while protein, lipid and carbohydrate are required in major quantities, vitamins and minerals are required in small quantities in the diet. Though minor in nature, the mineral nutrition i s not less important. Minerals are very essential because animals are not capable of synthesising them and should be supplied through external source. Many of the minerals are v i t a l for healthy growth of the animals and the- prolonged non- availability, either through diet or through environment, may cause irrecoverable deficiency disease.
