Phases

Nurture your future

Optimising calf rearing calls for focus on the full 24 months, seven days a week, 24 hours a day.

Lifetime production of the herd can be increased by creating the right conditions for youngstock rearing and getting heifers into peak condition to calve at 24 months old.

The Nurture with Provimi® Programme looks at the 24-month calf and heifer rearing period in seven key phases; colostrum, pre-weaning, post-weaning, grower, puberty, pregnancy and close-up.
