ABSTRACT

The macro and micro mineral levels of fodder differed significantly (P 0.01) among different sub-divisions of Lower Brahmaputra Valley, withthe highest values in Naibari sub-divisions and lowest values in Dhubri sub-division. Except iron and manganese, other macro and micro mineral contents were found to be deficient in fodders of Lower Brahmaputra Valley
