Milk replacer, concentrates and more
From the first colostrum to the move onto forage. We tailor milk replacer and concentrates to your farm; the complementary products you order straight from the shop.
From colostrum to forage
Each phase shows the products that go with it, and whether you order them from the shop or on quotation.
Colostrum is the first feed. If the cow has too little colostrum, or poor-quality colostrum, you top it up with colostrum powder. Stored colostrum is fed straight from the colostrum bag.

The rumen starts working during the milk-feeding period. A calf TMR and a calf pellet help the calf on its way to forage.

Can’t find your question? Our advisers will be glad to help.
Which milk replacer or concentrate suits you depends on your calves, your forage and how you feed: by bucket, automatic feeder or in batches. A DairyTop adviser works this out with you and sends a quote. The complementary products you can order straight from the shop.
For Pro Elite 30, 40 and 60, the number is the share of skimmed milk powder: 30, 40 or 60%. Pro Elite 24 is different: there the number is the 24% protein content, with 12.5% skimmed milk powder.
According to the product information, Premium and Pro Elite 30 are particularly suited to automatic feeders. Premium dissolves from 20 °C and stays stable for twenty hours, so it also suits batch feeding.
The standard dose is 1 gram of citric acid per litre of milk. The milk should be no warmer than 30 °C, or it will curdle. The optimum pH is between 5.5 and 5.8.
Dairy Pansen Pro is a calf pellet you feed ad lib alongside hay, or alongside a ration of maize and grass silage. Dairy Calf TMR combines forage and concentrate in one mix, so the calf takes in both in the right ratio.
