Topics
Feeding of calves and heifers:
- Important physiological parameters for the feeding of replacement calves
- Practical feeding of calves taking into account the zoo technical, economical, labour-technical and health factors
- Feeding of the heifer taking into account the effect on her production capacity as high producing dairy cow
- Feeding of beef cattle
- Feeding of meat calves, suckling cows, reform cows, steers, bulls and heifers
