Abstract

Cobalt deficiency in Kedah-Kelantan cattle was discovered on a fertilized grass/legume pasture. Livestock changes before treatment and the responses to cobalt, vitamin B12, copper and Terramcyin treatments are described.

The practical significance for the Malaysian cattle industry is discussed.
