Abstract

Our results show that a successful colostrum feeding program and adequate transfer of passive immunity can be accomplished through various management practices. Quantifying transfer of passive immunity in calves is one measurement that can be used to evaluate transfer of passive immunity to calves. Based on this metric, dairies can work with their trusted advisers to improve protocols for colostrum harvest, storage, and feeding
