Many feed companies have added selenium to complete dairy rations and protein supplements to help correct this problem. One of the main benefits of selenium supplementation is in reducing the incidence of retained placenta and im- proving early calf health. Other• deficiencies may include white muscle disease in calves or heifers, metritis, abortion, reduced fertility and decreased growth.
