Tallow increases yielcl of veal calves
BELTS VILLE, Md. -
Adding tallow or tallow plus
cholesterol to the diets of
veal calves significantly
increases the amount of veal
the calves produce. Veal
calves fed tallow plus
cholesterol were 42 pounds
heavier at slaughter than
calves fed whole milk, in a
study by scientists of
USDA’s Science and
Education Administration
(SEA).
Randall Wrenn and his
colleagues at SEA’s Belt
sville Agricultural Research
Center in Maryland com
pared the weight gains of 37
Holstein calves fed one of
five diets. The calves were in
individual stalls and fed
from nipple pails from three
to 117 days of age. Diets were
fed at 10 per cent of body
weight and consisted of skim
milk plus one of five sources
of additional calories. Diets
and weight gains were as
follows:
* Skim milk plus seven per
cent tallow and 0.3 per cent
cholesterol (152 pounds)
* Skim milk plus seven per
cent tallow (148 pounds)
* Skim milk plus 3.5 per
cent tallow and 0.2 per cent
cholesterol (126 pounds)
* Whole milk (skim milk

plus 3.5 per cent butterfat)

*Skim milk plus 3.5 per
cent tallow (106 pounds)
The number of calories
consumed by the calves
paralleled weight gains, with
calves fed seven per cent
tallow and 0.2 per cent
cholesterol consuming the
most calories and calves fed
the 3.5 per cent tallow
consuming the least number
of calories.
Yield of trimmed veal was
19 per cent- more on the
< seven per cent tallow-0.2 per
cent cholesterol diet and 14
per cent more on the 7 per
cent tallow diet than the
yield of trimmed veal from
calves fed either whole milk
or 3.5 per cent tallow. The
addition of cholesterol to the
diets of the calves did not
measurably alter the
cholesterol content of the
veal.
Since whole milk and milk
replacers are generally
expensive in relation to the
price of veal, the feeding of
veal calves has declined in
recent years. A less ex
pensive feed could help
increase veal production.
“Liquid tallow is an ex
cellent ingredient in the diets
of veal calves,” says Wrenn.
“These-diets work well for
calves that are kept on liquid
diets and on slatted or wire
mesh floors. In a previous
study, tallow was not useful
in the diets of calves that
were fed a calf starter and
were ruminating.”
“Diet preparation is
relatively simple. Pure
cholesterol is a white powder
and can be readily mixed
with liquids. However,
cholesterol is too expensive
for practical use. Tallow on
the other hand is com
paratively cheap, costing

only about 20 cents per
pound., and is readily
available Tallow can be
obtained as a solid in large
drums, melted and then put
into large feeders to which a
stirrer has been attached.
The stirrer would keep the
tallow combined with the
skim milk. Another option
for dairymen is to have a
local dairy plant run the
skim milk and the tallow'
through their homogcnizer.”
