Which disease occurs in animals due to cobalt deficiency

09/04/2021 Friday April 9th, 2021

Cobalt is very essential for ruminant animals as it is found in very limited quantities in their body. The lack of cobalt occurs in food items because the soil in which it was grown also lacked cobalt in the soil.
It helps in the synthesis of vitamin B12, which helps in the formation of red blood cells and growth.
Lack of appetite due to cobalt can cause weakness, Pica, Diarrhea, and infertility.

What is the meaning of Electrical conductivity

09/04/2021 Friday April 9th, 2021

Soil electrical conductivity (EC) is an indirect measurement that has a very deep correlation with the physical and chemical properties of soil. Soil electrical conductivity is an indication of the availability of nutrients in the soil.
The measurement of soil alkalinity and acidity is also highly dependent on soil electrical conductivity (EC).
The greater concentration of salts in the soil leaves a detrimental effect on the absorption of nutrients.
Very low electrical conductivity levels indicate low available nutrients, and very high EC levels indicate nutrient excess. Those with low EC are often found in sandy soils with low organic matter levels, while high EC levels are found in high organic soil content (more clay).
Soil texture, salinity and moisture are the soil properties that most affect EC levels.
