Feeding plans
The following plans are taken into account when the feed is prepared:
•
Quantity plan
•
Concentration plan
•
Quantity limitation plan
•
Milk ratio plan
When you registered your calves for the automatic feeder, you assigned them to a group (A,
B, C or D).
For each group, you can assign one of four feeding plans, for example quantity plan A for
group A or concentration plan B for group B.
If you are operating an automatic feeder with animal identification, calves from different feed-
ing groups, for example group A and group B, can be housed in the same pen or consume
feed at the same box.
Below is an example of a feeding plan.
