AgriSearch CalfCheck to support calf rearing

AgriSearch has launched CalfCheck, a new five-part video series providing farmers with practical, science-based guidance to improve calf health, welfare and lifetime performance.

The series follows the full calf-rearing journey, from management of the pre-calving cow through to weaning, focusing on key decisions that influence early growth and long-term productivity.
