Abstract
Many regions in the world are poor in soil selenium (Se) content, which in turn, resulted in inadequate selenium levels in forages and crops. Furthermore, under south Sinai conditions of the high salinity of water irrigation, growing plants aren't capable of maintaining their needs of selenium from the poor soil Subsequently, selenium supplementation is used to enhance dietary utilization Selenium (Se) plays essential roles in several metabolic processes, including antioxidant defense systems, thyroid hormone metabolism, and immune function Selenium is an essential component of glutathione peroxidase, an enzyme involved in detoxification of hydrogen peroxide and lipid hydroperoxides. Selenium has also been shown to improve immune responses Selenium deficiency plays a role in numerous economically important livestock disease, problems that include impaired fertility, abortion, retained placenta
