Good morning family 🥰 🥰

What is Weaning?
Weaning is the gradual process of transitioning a calf from its mother’s milk to solid feeds such as pasture, hay, and concentrates. It is a critical stage that promotes proper rumen development and prepares the calf for independent growth.

Good weaning practices reduce stress, support immunity, and improve overall productivity in the herd.
