native grasses, crop residues and by-products of
agro industry and suffer from mineral deficiencies.
Present investigation was carried out to explain
the Zinc (Zn) flow in semi-arid resource driven
areas, Kandlapally, Gangupalle and Yenkepally
in Ranga Reddy district, Telangana, India in
soil to soil through livestock cycle and suggest
suitable measures to prevent its losses as well as
alleviate Zn deficiency in dairy buffaloes. Ten
farmers from each village rearing buffaloes were
randomly selected for collection of samples (soil,
plant, blood, faeces, urine and milk) and Zn of
samples were analyzed with an atomic absorption
spectrophotometer after suitable processing. It was
observed that the 45% soil samples and most of the
straws and stovers of the study area were classified
as below critical level for Zn. Green fodder (Hybrid
Napier Co-4 variety, Fodder sorghum, Grazing
grass), tree leaves and concentrate ingredients were
having sufficient Zn content. The buffalo serum Zn
content in the samples were adequate, but 26.6%
of the samples were having below critical level
of Zn which suggests sizable amount of buffaloes
suffering from Zn deficiency. Significant correlation
values were obtained between feed and fodder and
buffalo serum, however, such correlations were not
observed between the mineral levels in buffalo and
mineral levels in soil. Zn content in green fodder
were more representative of soil, faeces and urine
(R2 = 0.267) than only soil (R2 = 0.039) which
suggests true recycling of nutrients through faeces
and urine under rural semi-arid conditions. Based
on soil, forage, feed, water and animal samples
analyses, it was concluded that few sample was
deficient in Zn, but animal was able to maintain the
plasma Zn level to some extent (about 74%). Zinc
homeostasis is largely regulated by its uptake and
loss through the small intestine. Supplementation
of Zn is required to overcome sub-clinical Zn
deficiency mainly through feed fortification.Not Availabl
