Minerals are essential nutrients in animal bodies and play an extremely important role.It is one of the essential nutrients for animal life activities,playing an important role in enhancing animal immunity,ensuring animal reproduction,and improving feed conversion rate.Once lacking,it can cause disease and affect its production performance.Due to the close relationship between animal growth and health and minerals,excessive or insufficient amounts can affect the body's metabolism.Mild cases can affect the animal's metabolism and growth performance,while severe cases can lead to malnutrition and a series of diseases.Minerals need to be used precisely,fully utilizing their value to achieve optimal nutrition while achieving scientific reduction and effective emission reduction.This paper reviews the research progress on mineral nutrient requirements of yaks,and summarizes them,providing reference for peers to understand the research progress of mineral nutrient requirements of yaks.
