For decades we have been waiting 2-3 weeks for calves to eat a starter feed in significant quantities to stimulate rumen development.
Progressive dairy farmers are now using Axcelera-C to accelerate rumen development from 5 days.
The calves below are weaning at 35 days when they achieve 1.5kg dry matter intake - growing faster, stronger calves and saving £30 / calf in rearing costs.
