Mineral Composition of Mare's Milk: Copper, Zinc, and Iron Levels During Lactation

Wed, 05 Feb 2025 00:00:00 GMT

Mare’s milk is the primary source of nutrients for a foal during the first weeks of life. However, its mineral composition does not always fully meet the intensive requirements of a developing organism.

As a result, particularly in the later stages of lactation, mare’s milk is characterized by low zinc and copper content and limited amounts of iron. This is a critical factor in foal nutrition, justifying the necessity of supplementing these microelements in modern breeding practices.
