Effects of zinc supplementation on milk production performance and growth status of Bactrian camels
Collectively, in the present study, zinc at 2.00 g/camel/day improved hair growth in lactating camels without affecting milk production, while 0.50-0.75 g/camel/day enhances growth and hair development in calves, establishing a basis for zinc supplementation in camel husbandry.
