Abstract
Although numerous studies on the early weaning system of calf rearing have given information concerning the composition of milk substitutes and concentrate rations which may be used, and the subsequent growth rates which may be expected, few have given information concerning either the relative effects on subsequent growth rate of initial weight, weaning weight, concentrate and hay intakes, or the relationships which exist among these factors themselves.Keywords
