Abstract

Little or no P fertilizer is used in most grazing systems. Supplying P directly to animals as a feed supplement can economically improve animal performance and contribute to an improvement in the P balances of grazing systems. Guidelines for supplement use have been devised. Further research is required to determine the best application strategies to overcome P deficits, and the best farming systems to minimise P requirements.
