“…The contents of Na were generally low in the forages in the present study; similarly, Morris et al . () found Na concentration to decline from 0·5 to 0·2 g kg −1 DM in Californian rangeland pasture from May to September. For microminerals, a comparison with other European studies showed that the intervals between minimum and maximum values were similar, with the possible exceptions of I and Se, as for these elements, there are few reported data available for comparison (Table ).…”

“…Previous research in northeastern Oregon involving the use of trace-mineral salt in spring-summer grazing systems shows summer gains for yearling steers were not improved with tracemineral salt compared with iodized salt, averaging 0.92 kg/d (Turner and Whanger, 1995). Although the aforementioned research compared the use of trace-mineral salt with iodized salt, unrelated work by Morris et al (1980) found that providing salt free choice to one group of cattle in pastures with low Na concentration but providing no supplemental salt to the control group Off-stream = cattle with access to Milk Creek and offstream water and trace mineral salt, No-offstream = cattle with access to Milk Creek with no offstream water and trace mineral salt. Values are the average of both years, n = 6. b 1 to 9, 1 = extremely emaciated (Wagner et al, 1988).…”

“…Concentrations of salivary Na and K are given in Table 4. When the dietary supply of Na is sufficient, the salivary Na concentration is higher than 120 mmol L −1 21. In the present study the cows fed the low‐Na ration had a salivary Na concentration of 95.6 mmol L −1 , indicating that these animals were fed below their Na requirement.…”
