Calf

Calf rearing sets the foundation for the lifetime productivity of your animal and doing it well will give you the best chance to have a profitable animal.

Whether rearing calves for heifer replacements or beef animals, goals are similar:

• To produce quality replacement heifers that become high producing cows and will last over time in the herd.
• To grow beef animals to target weights faster and in better condition, so they achieve slaughter dates earlier, or on time, at better weights.
• To do both in a way that is cost effective.
