How to get the best possible start with Kaliber

As a dairy farmer, you want your calves to be as heavy and well developed as possible. The Kaliber Calf Rearing Plan results in heifers that calve at 24 months and weigh 570kg after calving with the backline and the last ribs clearly visible. With our plan, you can optimise height, length and carcass. However, the success of this plan hinges on the first few months. Here’s what you need to know about how to get the most out of your start phase.
