dc.description.abstractIn this study, samples of forage (alfalfa hay, corn silage, silage of common vetch with triticale, wheat straw), feed ingredient (barley grain, corn grain, wheat grain, wheat bran, corn meal, corn bran, corn gluten meal, cottonseed meal, soybean meal, sunflower meal, dried digestible grain solubilty), and concentrate feed (calf grower feed, heifer feed, dairy cattle feed and beef cattle feed) were collected from various feed mills and dairy cattle farms in the Central Anatolia and Mediterranen Regions of Turkey and analysed to determine their boron levels. Boron concentration ranged from 23.9 to 39.1 ppm in forages. In feed ingredients, concentrations of B varied between 4.1 and 36.4 ppm, with barley grain and soybean meal having the lowest and highest levels, respectively. Average B concentration of concentrate feeds was 20.1 ppm and beef cattle feed and heifer feed had the lowest (12.0 ppm) and highest values (27.9 ppm), respectively.
