Smart Calf Rearing Conference

The early stages of a calf’s life are crucial for long-term health, productivity, and performance. This session will explore how colostrum influences immune system development beyond passive transfer, the impact of early management decisions on dairy calves, and how early-life factors shape mammary growth and future milk production. Join our experts as they uncover the physiological foundations that set the stage for a calf’s lifelong success.
