How much salt will cattle eat?

The daily nutritional requirements per animal of salt is 2 to 3 grams of sodium and less than 5 grams of chloride for young growing animals. For lactating cows, they need 11 grams of sodium and 15 grams of chloride. All these numbers are on a per-day basis. In terms of percentage of ration, sodium concentrations of 0.06% to 0.1% or ration dry matter for non-lactating yearlings and calves, and no more than 0.1% dry matter for lactating beef cows. Dairy cows may need a little more (probably no more than 0.2%) than beef cows because they are producing twice to thrice as much milk as beef cows typically do. Despite these numbers, cattle should have no limited access to salt every day, provided they also have constant access to plenty of water.
