Introducing the 8th edition of the Focus on Calves. What is new in the world of calf rearing? in pages 20-21 Georgina Thomas from Trouw explains calf scour in a whole new light and the correct strategies for correcting diarrhoea. We also explore smaller stature calves and discuss how they are not just smaller Holsteins, and they should be managed differently. New research is not always the answer. Sometimes we need to adjust and re-evaluate current practices to get the most from our youngstock. Elinor Thomas evaluates calf jackets and how to use them correctly, with Laura Monk exploring weaning strategies and what works best.
