It is very advisable if you can use waste milk during the first stage of the calves’ breeding because of its high nutritional quality. It is also a way to value a product which can not be delivered to the industry and that even its discard generates a logistic problem and an environmental impact. If that milk is not pasteurised, it will run a great risk of serious infection with illnesses which would be a problem in the grown-up cows during all its lifetime. However, a diet with pasteurised waste milk generates important advantages because the calves gain weightand have a best health condition and even breeding costs are reduced since milk is the most expensive thing during the first sixty days of the calves’ life.
