Abstract:Phosphorus (P) deficiency can be challenging to diagnose and its impact on beef production difficult to quantify. However, an indicator of wet season P has been identified as a major factor affecting the reproductive performance of beef breeding females across northern Australia (McGowan et al., 2014). Faecal near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (FNIRS, to estimate dietary metabolisable energy (ME)) and wet chemistry (to estimate faecal P (FP)) are methods used to create a newly developed ratio of faecal pho… Show more
