Technical Details & Test Data
- Product Testing
Crude protein and amino acid digestibility in 17-days-old calves is overall better in HP 300 compared to regular SBM. The flow of amino acid to duodenum is higher and urea plasma concentration indicates better amino acid deposition in calves when fed HP 300 – a prerequisite for growth.
A commercial Dutch rosé calf operation have tested HP 300 in pre-starter feeding. The results showed a more uniform calf herd where small calves grow better on HP 300 and nearly reach the same weight as bigger calves. Overall, calves fed HP 300 had on average 4kg higher live weight and 2kg higher carcass weight at slaughter, week 32.
Feeding HP 300 in pre-starter to 14-day-old calves getting skim milked based CMR results in cleaner hindquarters and more firm feces compared to SBM. Trial from Aarhus University, Foulum in Denmark.
- Product Highlights
Young calves depend on sound rumen development for a smooth transition from milk to the post weaning grower phase. A pre-starter feed with HP 300 is the key to developing the rumen efficiently from an early stage.
Our specialty soy protein is suitable for ad libitum feeding from day 2 until post weaning. With HP 300 in your starter feed for calves you get these benefits:
- Increased growth
- Palatable taste
