About Neonate
The “Program Neonate® for calves” app has been developed by Phileo Lesaffre Animal Care (Animal Nutrition and Health Business Unit of Lesaffre Group) for dairy farmers to evaluate the benefits of optimum calf management through the new Program Neonate®
This user-friendly tool will allow you to assess the complete program return on investment, based on each farm size and specific management for a complete tailor made analysis.
Program Neonate ® is a unique and flexible nutritional program in 3 steps specially designed by Lesaffre for young ruminant management, to promote optimum growth and development from the end of gestation until weaning.
Step 1, for the close-up dry cow (D30 to calving):
To improve the passive immune transfer from cow to calf via colostrum
Step 2, for the first weeks of the calf (D3 to D10):
To reduce the risk of neonatal diarrhea
Step 3, before weaning (D10 to weaning):
To support early calf growth up to weaning
