Hubbard Feeds, a provider of researched-based, animal nutrition products, is pleased to announce the launch of its new STRIVE Calf Program at the World Dairy Expo, Sept. 30 to Oct. 4, 2014, in Madison, Wisconsin.

STRIVE is Hubbard’s next generation calf feeding program designed to provide superb early growth and a smooth transition to dry feed.

Program highlights:

  • Utilizes Beginner Plus or Vitalizer Plus 24 percent protein, 20 percent fat milk replacer and 18 percent Elite texturized calf starter formulated specifically for this moderate feeding program.
  • Increased feeding rate for optimal, outstanding economical growth.
  • Flexible use in either auto feeder or individual feeding systems.
  • Lowers total pounds of milk replacer fed versus accelerated growth programs, maximizing gain with exceptional starter intake.

“STRIVE improves growth over conventional feeding programs and has the potential to more than double birth weight in 60 days. It does this through combining optimum milk replacer and starter formulations to maximize early growth at a more economical cost to a full accelerated growth program.” said Dan Schimek, manager, dairy nutrition and tech services, Hubbard Feeds.
