Magnesium Phosphate - Feed Ingredient

Magnesium Phosphate refers to a group of inorganic compounds containing both magnesium and phosphate ions. It is commonly used in feed formulations as a dual-source mineral supplement, providing both magnesium and phosphorus—two essential macro-minerals in equine nutrition. The most commonly used forms include monomagnesium phosphate (Mg(H₂PO₄)₂) and dimagnesium phosphate (MgHPO₄).

In equine feed, magnesium phosphate contributes to bone development, energy metabolism, and neuromuscular function. It is typically included in premixes or mineral blends to help meet the dietary requirements for these essential nutrients, especially in growing, lactating, or performance horses.
