CALVES

Optimal calf rearing begins in the cow’s transition period. The first weeks of the calf’s life are important for both the animal and the dairy farmer. Smooth calf rearing means less work for the farmer. A good start for the calf increases the chance of a healthy and strong dairy cow. Investing in calf rearing is investing in the future dairy cow and maintaining a healthy farm environment overall.

CALVES

The AHV Calf Rearing Programme focuses on the respiratory system, intestines and resistance of the calf for optimal rearing and build-up of its natural resistance.

How we work

Each programme within the AHV Cows & Calves segment is based on a predetermined approach. Within the AHV Calf segment, four programmes can be distinguished: Digestive, Immunity, Respiratory and Skin & Hygiene. Together with your AHV Specialist, you can assess herd health based on farm data and farm goals.

Benefits

Technology

AHV offers multiple programmes for calves with products and solutions in a broad variety of applications. These programmes provide a range of products that are easy to apply and suitable for multiple purposes. These purposes focus on every stage of the development of the calf and benefit from the patent pending AHV QSI Technology and/or newest knowledge of animal care. Products and solutions in all AHV programmes are animal friendly and easy to administer or apply.

Animal health

Calf rearing focuses on following protocols, monitoring and supporting the health of their respiratory system, intestines and immunity, as well as providing a clean and stress-free environment for the calf for optimal growth and development.

Financial

Healthy calves are an investment for future high producing dairy cows, as well as for maintaining a healthy ambiance. The future potential of the producing animal is determined by its early life growth and development. Calves that become high producing, longer living dairy cows break even on their rearing costs and, to an extent, they start to become a successful return on investment.

What farmers say

“Since we have been using the AHV Calf Rearing Program, we have been able to support our calves’ natural resistance. The calves are more energetic and gain more weight.”

Simon BerthouBrittany, France

“The AHV Calf Rearing Program has helped to optimize and improve the growth and resistance of my calves in the first two important weeks of life.”

DeuringerGermany

“We mainly use the AHV Solutions to optimise the health of our calves. Since we started using the AHV Calf Start and AHV Respi Solutions, we have noticed that the calves’ intestinal and lung health has improved. There are simply fewer intestinal challenges and the calves have a better kickstart. The AHV Solutions are also very pleasant to use and often one application is enough.”
