Interrelationships among mineral levels in soil, forage, and animal tissues on ranches in northern Mato Grosso. I. Calcium and phosphorus

An experiment was conducted with samples from six farms in northern Mato Grosso, Brazil, to study the interrelationships between level of minerals in soil, forage, and animal tissues during the wet and dry seasons of the year. Soil extractable Ca, forage Ca, and rib bone ash Ca were normal during both seasons. Soil extractable P ranged from 2.5 to 27.6 ppm which is considered low to average. Forage P was deficient for grazing cattle and ranged from 0.07 to 0.18%. Rib bone ash phosphorus levels ranged from 15.1 to 15.5% and they are considered borderline to deficient. Mean rib bone ash P during the dry season was greater than during the wet season, even when forage phosphorus levels were lower. This indicates a higher requirement during the wet compared with the dry season. Rib bone ash P was positively correlated with soil Ca, forage Ca, rib bane ash Ca, and soil P.

Foi feito um levantamento das deficiências minerais em seis fazendas do norte de Mato Grosso, baseado em amostras de solo, plantas forrageiras e tecido animal, coletadas durante as épocas seca e chuvosa. As análises de Ca mostraram que, das seis fazendas, cinco tinham níveis de Ca no solo considerados altos e apenas uma apresentava valores considerados médios. Os níveis de Ca nas plantas forrageiras, em geral eram suficientes para atender às exigências nutricionais dos bovinos, nas duas épocas estudadas. Os níveis de Ca nos ossos (costela) foram considerados normais em todas as fazendas. Os teores de P nos solos estudados foram considerados entre médio e baixo (2,9 a 27,6 ppm, respectivamente). As análises de P das forrageiras indicaram que nenhuma delas, com exceção das leguminosas, forneciam níveis adequados para um mínimo de produção animal, evidenciando, assim, a deficiência deste mineral nas seis fazendas. Entre as duas épocas estudadas, houve grande variação dos teores de P nas forrageiras. As médias gerais alcançadas foram de 0,20% na época chuvosa, e 0.08% na época seca. As médias de P nos ossos dos animais variaram entre 15,1 e 15,5%. A deficiência de P, foi, por conseguinte, evidente. Os animais apresentaram níveis mais altos de P (15,5%) durante a época seca e níveis mais baixos (15,0%) durante a época chuvosa, o que sugere maior necessidade de P durante o período chuvoso. Os níveis de P nos ossos foram positivamente correlacionados com o teor de Ca no solo, nas forrageiras, nos ossos, e com o teor de P no solo.
