Extract

A field trial was carried out to test the efficacy of proprietary copper (Cu) tabletst in preventing hypocupraemia in beef cattle grazing molybdenum (Mo)-rich pastures. This product is based on a specially formulated matrix, which is claimed to control the solubility product of inorganic metallic salts when the tablets are suspended in a plastic container in water troughs.
