Dr Jim Drackley discusses problems with Colostrum yield and quality .
Dr Drackley, University of Illinois, was scheduled to present in May but had to cancel on the last minute. At the time he offered to return with updated calf feeding recommendations at the end of the year. Since the new NRC recommendations have not yet been released, he gave a presentation on colostrum. This is a great refresher and discussion of issues farms may be having with obtaining high quality colostrum.
