State Farmers Warned Take Special Care Of Light Calves
State agriculture experts urge Missouri farmers to protect light weight calves this winter amid scarce feed. Calves 360 to 450 pounds need high quality roughage or grain and protein supplements to gain, with 2 to 4 pounds of daily grain for lighter calves. Separate calves, feed best hay, and use mineral mix with phosphorus. Plant proteins often outperform urea supplements in high roughage diets.
