Description

Calves represent the greatest potential for milk production on a well-managed farm. Their care should be consistent with the high value they offer the business. Providing a quality environment that allows calves to thrive in individual or group housing systems is essential. This webinar focuses on the key physical and environmental factors that offer the opportunity to raise healthy, well-grown calves.
