Mineral mixes for cattle balance calcium and phosphorus
The article explains that trace mineral salt lacks calcium and phosphorus and suggests simple blends such as two parts steamed bone meal to one part salt or two parts dicalcium phosphate to one part salt. It is advised to feed salt separately and construct a two‑compartment mineral box. It also notes fluorescent lamps provide more light per watt and emit less heat than filament bulbs.
