The study was conducted on the cadmium (Cd) transfer from soil to pasture at Khizerabad Livestock Farm, District Sargodha (falling under semi-arid conditions), Pakistan. The concentrations of Cd in the soil and forage ranged from 2.80 to 6.74 mg/kg and 1.14 to 4.20 mg/kg, respectively, in different sampling periods. The higher values of Cd in pasture suggested the possible risk of entering Cd into higher food chain as these concentrations of Cd can potentially be transported from soil to different animals rearing on the farm pastures, and they should be taken into account in risk assessment of chemical toxicity. Providing region-specific mineral mixture having highly bioavailable forms of other trace elements to the ruminants like Zn, Fe, and Mn, which are known to antagonize Cd, would help in overcoming the Cd toxicity. There is an urgent need of permanent monitoring of cadmium content in the feed used in animal nutrition at livestock farm.
