Copper — results ‘include those

All copper’ levels in samples

elude that copper supplementa-

authors feel though that when

copper supplementation could

result in a 15 percent increase

in feed efficiency.
Phosphorus

Legumes..had a higher phos-
pherous content than grasses.
Only 12 ‘percent . of legume
samples failed “ito meet: : preg-
nant cow needs and 30 percent
or legumes were deficient for
weanling calves. In: comparison |:
36 percent of grass hays failed

do meet “needs “for “pregriant |’

sows and 48 percerit of prasg
hays sampled failed ito meet
weanling calf requirements,
The report points out that sam-
pling was’ on standing crops.
Lower values would oceur on
the same product stored. Gener-
ally phosphorus in stored ‘hays
was 2/3 of the content in stand-
ing crops, The researchers con-
clude that phosphorus supple-
mentation is generally needed
under ‘these circustances, The
deficiency: is. “beeravated -when
