Milk and milk products are the parts and parcels of human lives, therefore, plays pivotal role in day-to-day human life. In recent years many developing countries have found increased deficiency of macro and micronutrients in feedstuffs, leading animals to long for significant nutrients. Both macro and micronutrients are very important for the metabolic functions of forage crops and the health of animals. Deficiencies in soil, especially in nitrogen, zinc and iron have a significant negative effect on forage productivity and quality. Agronomic biofortification is an innovative method designed to improve the nutritional quality of animal feed through farming practices. This review gathers research on various techniques to increase both fodder yield and quality, thus increasing the nutrient content via agronomic biofortification. Agronomic biofortification has produced some promising results, offering a quick and cost-effective way to improve forage and tackle animal malnutrition. Furthermore, the review looks at issues to be addressed in biofortification such as environmental factors, nutrient bioavailability and economic challenges. Overall, it highlights the importance of agronomic biofortification as a promising approach to boost the nutritional quality of fodder crops, thereby benefiting animal health and welfare, and contributing to food security and sustainable agriculture.
