I don't know why they respond more to mineral at different times of year. We have a particular pasture that when the cows are in they go absolutely crazy for salt. I don't know why, but they do. I still don't think it has anything to do with the cows knowing what elements they are short of and start to crave it. Cows just aren't that smart.
