Early calving heifers pay
A recent Ontario DHIC report
indicated the average age of first
calf dairy heifers was 29 months.
Raising healthy, productive, early
calving heifers should be a primary
goal of every producer. Research
has shown heifers calving at 24
months of age are more profitable.
In fact, heifers not fresh by two
years of age can cost as much as
$4.00/day until calving. The extra
profit comes from lower labor, feed
and overheadcosts, while
increasing lifetime production and
genetic improvement.
Let's examine the financial im-
pact of calving .heifers' at 29 months
versus 24 months:
29 months - 24 months = 150 days
150 days x $4.00/day = $600/heifer
In an operation with 20 heifers
entering the herd annually this
represents $12,000 - a sizeable
reason for focusing on "heifer
Management".
A 1993 Holstein Heifer Study
done in our county indicated total
costs to raise a heifer from birth to
24 months is nearly . $1,400. Al-
though feed is' the big expense
(approximately 50%), there are
other costs Such as labor, housing,
breeding, vet and medicine, interest
and death loss. All these items have
a dollar value and should be con-
sidered when analyzing your heifer
rearing program.
