Every calf you raise
costs about $6O a month
for forage and labor. So
if you could breed them
at 14 months (6 months
earlier than average),
they’d freshen at 24
months and you’d save
$360 on each calf. Not
to mention the profits
from 6 extra months of milking
New Agway Gro:Right Complete Calf
Feed can help you do that. It’s an improved
version of our Total Calf Ration, the
brand Northeastern farmers have been
