2. Secondary mineral deficiencies are by far the most common of the two. Secondary deficiencies are derived from the consumption of one or more mineral antagonists that interfere with the normal metabolism of another mineral. A simple mineral evaluation of a feedstuff may suggest that adequate trace mineral concentrations are present; however, the presence of a mineral antagonist will decrease ...
