Abstract
Colostrum feeding methods were studied in 23 Belgian herds. Data were collected on 11 factors including .gamma. globulin and absorption involved in colostrum management and absorption. Single correlation coefficients were determined among these factors. Under usual Belgian farming, the farmers practices influence many of the factors involved in colostrum management and absorption.
