About
Healthy calves are the basis for healthy, long-lived and nutrient-efficient dairy cows and fattening animals. With optimised colostrum and feeding management combined with a coordinated range of concentrates, healthy and fast-growing calves can be reared from birth onwards on the dairy farm itself. In addition, husbandry, hygiene and animal health are fundamentally important building blocks. The same level of care should therefore be given to your own breeding and to calves for sale. This applies in particular since the extension of rearing in the birth farm.
