Seasonal and Spatial Variations of Iron and Zinc Values in Meadows with a Semi-Arid Climate

Seasonal changes in the climate, as well plants and species living this environment, which causes serious problems. Current work was carried out to evaluate seasonal impact on concentration of iron (Fe) zinc (Zn) soil, forages animals. A semi arid dry climatic area Pakistan selected find effects soil availability Zn Fe, its translocation Twenty seven were collected 320 ruminant samples from two sites four seasons. Effect spatial-temporal variations studied ruminants physiological stages (Does, Bucks, Wether Juvenile). Different sources goats including blood, feces urine for analysis Fe. Results showed that both elements significantly (P < 0.05) affected by season site x season. In forages, only significant effect Fe Zn, while non-significantly > source stages, sources. All values safe limits except deficiency (1.69 2.33 mg/L) blood. health indices also limits. encircles spatio- temporal mineral food chain concern related health.
