An animal feed containing a carboxylic acid either as the sole active ingredient or in combination with 1.alpha.-hydroxylated vitamin D compounds and/or phytase. The carboxylic acid or the combination of carboxylic acid with vitamin D compounds and/or phytase causes improved utilization of phosphorus, calcium, potassium, magnesium, zinc, iron and manganese in animal feed so as to minimize, or perhaps eliminate, the need for supplemental quantities of these minerals in an animal diet. In addition, low phosphorus containing animal feeds reduce the polluting effects on the environment since less phosphorus is excreted in the animal's feces which are then spread on agricultural land.

L'invention concerne un aliment pour animaux contenant un acide carboxylique en tant qu'unique principe actif ou combiné avec des composés de vitamine D 1.alpha.-hydroxylés et/ou une phytase. L'acide carboxylique ou l'acide carboxylique combiné avec des composés de vitamine D et/ou une phytase assure une utilisation améliorée du phosphore, calcium, potassium, magnésium, zinc, fer et manganèse dans la nourriture pour animaux de manière à réduire, voire éliminer, le besoin de quantités supplémentaires de ces minéraux dans un régime animal. En outre, des aliments pour animaux renfermant une faible quantité de phosphore réduisent les effets polluants qui nuisent à l'environnement, étant donné que les excréments de l'animal qui sont ensuite répandus dans les terres agricoles renferment une quantité moindre de phosphore.
