A survey was conducted in Rudraprayag, Pauri, New Tehri, Uttarkashi, Chamoli and Dehradun districts of Garhwalregion of Uttaranchal. Soil, fodder and serum samples were collected and estimated for their micro mineral content,Significant deficiency of Zn, Co and Cu was observed in soil., fodder and serum samples of these areas. The significantly low soil, Zn Co and Cu value was observed in Chamoli, Uttrakashi and New Tehri respectively. The minimum serum Zn, Cu and Co was observed in Dehradun (0.64+-0.11, 0.34+-0.62 and 0.017+-0.02 respectively). Lowest Hb and TEC was enocountered in Rudraprayag, while lowest T3 and T4 was observed in Chamoli. Similarly Chamoli showed a lowest vitamin A and E level (0.66+-0.34 and 1.01+-0.12 respectively). The soil fodder and serum mineral status was significalty correlated, Various biochemical parameters related to minerals, viz enzymes AST, ALT and CP were deficient similary vitamin A and E and hormone T3 and T4 were also significantly reduced in themineral deficient cattle. It can be conduded that the low productivity of the animals of this region is probably dueito mineral deficiency in this region.
