Abstract
Summary
- Energy density is the key to limit feeding
- Lactation increases energy needs considerably
- Consider early weaning options
- Confined calves must be able to reach water and feed
- Limit fed cows need ample bunk space and a consistent feeding routine
- Each producer needs to evaluate their resources and system options to see what might work best
- As prices change systems should be reevaluated
