Productivity and metabolic processes of replacement heifers when fed organic chromium at different concentrations
Submitted by Гость (not verified) on Thu, 05/21/2026 - 16:43Optimization of the feeding system of repair young animals is a determining factor affecting the subsequent productivity of animals. The study aimed to establish the optimal rate of organic chromium feeding for young cattle aged 6-9 months. The experiment was conducted on the basis of JSC Enterprise Yemelyanovka (Moscow region, Ozersk district). Three groups of animals were formed: group 1 (control) received the basic ration (BD), experimental group 2 received BD + 3.75 mg/head per day of inorganic chromium, and experimental group 3 received BD + 2.81 mg/head per day of inorganic chromium.
