Availability to Ponies of Calcium and Phosphorus from Various Supplements

Abstract
A 4 × 4 latin square design balance trial was conducted with mature ponies to compare ground limestone, steamed bone meal, dicalcium phosphate and monosodium phosphate as sources of Ca or P. Retention, apparent digestibility and estimated true digestibility were the criteria used. No differences were observed in the utilization of the supplements and it was concluded that the supplements were highly available sources of Ca or P for horses. Copyright © 1972.
