Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14677871

Cobalt is an essential trace mineral for ruminant animals such as dairy and beef cattle, sheep and goats. Most forages and feedstuffs fed to dairy and beef animals do not contain adequate quantities of cobalt to support the rumen and animal requirements. Cobalt propionate may be a slightly better source of cobalt compared to cobalt carbonate.
