In the Spring of 2024, Dairygold launched its new and improved calf feed range. Our Prime Elite Krispi Kaf was replaced by Prime Elite Rumi Starter Mix and our product offering also included our new calf starter pencil – Prime Elite Rumi Starter Pencil. The impact of early nutrition lays down the foundation for performance later in life and this is well demonstrated in both Irish and global research. Studies show that dairy heifer calves fed higher quality nutrients up to eight weeks of age produce more milk during their first lactation and early life nutrition can, in fact, be more important in this regard than genetics! It is also well known that the young calf is highly efficient in converting food into liveweight gain – an efficiency that declines with age so we get the best bang for our buck when supplementing the calf at this young stage. These products have proven very popular with our customers, demonstrating excellent palatability, driving early calf starter intakes and pre-weaning calf live weight gains
