Raising calves is a serious business – one that has become increasingly precise in terms of nutrition, business operations, and health and management protocols. Refractometers provide on-farm precision for a number of management protocols that support calf health and performance.

If there’s one, single “secret” to raising healthy calves, it’s the timely delivery of high-quality colostrum to every one of them. We’re still learning about all the “goodies” colostrum delivers. A lot of emphasis is placed on immunoglobulins, particularly IgG, because they can be measured on-farm.
