Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an injectable multi-mineral complex supplementation on beef cows overall mineral status and fertility. This study involved 9 different locations in the state of Virginia and a total of 1,128 Angus crossbred multiparous cows. All cows had ad libitum access to forage and water, and received mineral supplementation in form of mineral blocks. All cows were enrolled in a 7-d CO-Synch + CIDR fixed-time AI (FTAI) protocol, followed by natural service for an approximately 70-d breeding season. At the initiation of the FTAI protocol (d 0) cows were stratified by days post-partum (82 ± 18 d) and randomly assigned to one of two treatments: 1) One dose of an injectable trace mineral containing zinc (60mg/ml), copper (15mg/ml), selenium (5mg/ml) and manganese (10mg/ml) on d 0 (n = 560; 1 ml/90 kg BW of Multimin® 90, Multimin USA, Ft. Collins, CO); or 2) a negative control with no trace mineral injection (n = 568). BCS was recorded at d 0, 61 and 121. Estrus detection was recorded at d 10 using an estrus detection patch. Pregnancy was diagnosed on days 71 and 131 by ultrasonography. Liver biopsies were collected on days 0 and 45 in a subgroup of 140 cows from both treatments and distributed among all locations. No differences between treatments were detected in days post-partum (P = 0.83), BCS (P ≥ 0.42) and estrus detection (P= 0.12), neither in mineral status of copper, manganese, selenium or zinc (P ≥ 0.28). No effect of treatment was detected (P ≥ 0.20) in AI pregnancy rate (57%) or overall pregnancy rate (93%). In conclusion, one dose of injectable trace mineral administrated 10 days before AI did not improve pregnancy rate or overall mineral status in multiparous beef cows enrolled in FTAI.

Offspring Health

Nutritional status can have major implications for animal health and production. Energy balance is easily determined using a body condition scoring system. This allows producers to readily adjust diets to meet an animal’s needs. Far less obvious is an animal’s trace mineral status, which is typically not assessed until an animal’s performance falls below expectation or illness is detected. Trace mineral toxicities and deficiencies can manifest as reduced thriftiness and/or poor reproductive performance, resulting in economic consequences for producers. Maternal mineral status not only impacts dam heath, but also the health of subsequent offspring. Both the oocyte and embryo are susceptible to changes in maternal mineral status. This susceptibility is maintained throughout fetal development via placental control of nutrient transfer to the fetal system. Furthermore, maternal mineral status continues to impact offspring health via colostrum and milk quality. Herein we discuss the roles of trace minerals in bovine reproductive performance, maternal health, colostrum and milk quality, and offspring health.

We measured nutrient intake and digestibility, performance and mineral status of young Nellore bulls fed three diets with and without supplementation comprising calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P) and micro-minerals during the growing and finishing phases. Five bulls were slaughtered at the beginning of the experiment to measure initial mineral status. Forty-two young Nellore bulls (initial bodyweight (mean ± s.d.) 270.4 ± 36.6 kg, age 8 months) were assigned for 125 days to one of six treatments: sugarcane as a roughage source plus a concentrate based on soybean meal and soybean hull with (SH100) and without (SH0) supplementation; sugarcane as a roughage source plus a concentrate based on soybean meal and ground maize with (SC100) and without (SC0) supplementation; and maize silage as a roughage source plus a concentrate based on soybean meal and maize with (CS100) and without (CS0) supplementation. The experiment was conducted as a completely randomised design with a 3 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Nutrient intake and digestibility, bone and serum parameters related to Ca and P metabolism, and liver mineral concentrations were measured. Nutrient intake, digestibility and performance were not affected (P > 0.10) by the mineral factor. Water intake was higher (P < 0.05) with SH100 than with all other diets. Rib-bone breaking strength and density according to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry were reduced (P < 0.04) in the absence of supplementation. Metatarsus parameters were not affected (P > 0.10). Liver copper (Cu) content was reduced (P < 0.01) in diets without supplementation. In conclusion, the short-term absence of mineral supplementation did not influence intake and digestibility. However, depending on diet type, absence of Cu may reduce the hepatic Cu content, and a low Ca:P ratio may stimulate bone reabsorption without compromising performance. Therefore, under our conditions, mineral requirements are overestimated by nutritional systems.

Abstract Thirty six crossbred (predominantly English with some Bos indicus influence) beef steers (initial BW 264.8 + 35.8 kg) were blocked by BW and used in a completely random design to examine the effects of mineral supplementation on performance and serum mineral status in beef cattle grazing annual ryegrass pastures for 84 d. All cattle were withheld from mineral for approximately 60 d prior to the initiation of the study and were allowed to graze dormant bahiagrass pastures (Paspalum notatum), and also had access to bahiagrass hay. On d -1, cattle were weighed and stratified by BW into Light (n = 6 pastures) and Heavy (n = 4 pastures) blocks and returned to their dormant warm season pasture. On d 0, cattle were weighed, a 10 mL blood sample was collected for serum mineral status and cattle were moved to their respective 1.2 ha annual ryegrass treatment pastures. Treatments were randomly assigned to pasture and consisted of CON (no complete mineral supplementation), or MIN (free choice access to a complete beef mineral.) Cattle grazed annual ryegrass for 84 d, after which a final BW was collected as well as a second 10 mL blood sample. Data were analyzed as a mixed model with weight block a random effect and treatment a fixed effect and pasture was the experimental unit. Supplementing MIN tended (P = 0.06) to increase total weight gain at d 84 and increased (P = 0.01) ADG (1.61 vs. 1.67 kg/d for CON and MIN, respectively). Additionally, feeding MIN resulted in increased serum Co, Zn, and Se (P = 0.01) but resulted in no differences in serum Fe and Cu (P > 0.10). Feeding MIN resulted in greater performance and increased some serum mineral levels, however the lack of response in serum Cu to MIN bears further examination.
