COLOSTRUM MANAGEMENT

Colostrum Management The feeding of calves during the first days of life or even immediately after birth is crucial for their future development. First milk also known as colostrum, has a higher percentage of immunoglobulins and nutrients compared to normal cow’s milk. Consequently, the new-born calf needs to take higher quanities of the high-quality colostrum straight away. It is recommended that a colostrum store can be created with frozen colostrum. This means that there is always a stock of high-quality first milk available. If the quality of the colostrum after birth is poor (e.g. in heifers) or the amount produced is too low, frozen colostrum can be used instead.
