Abstract
A milk replacement formula is presented for use in the feeding of dairy calves which makes possible the raising of these animals on 50 lbs. of saleable whole milk. Calves have been raised on the formula which are comparable in all known respects to calves grown on recommended whole milk feeding schedules.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
