Denkavit partner Dairy Academy

Calves hidden profit for dairy farmer

16 November 2017 - Herma van den Pol

Denkavit, producer of young animal nutrition, becomes the new partner of Dairy Academy Oenkerk. A collaboration between A-ware and Fonterra to support dairy farmers with knowledge. Good news, because it is precisely in the rearing of calves that there are opportunities to improve yields, according to A-ware.

"We are proud to welcome a new partner. Through Dairy Academy Oenkerk, we help our dairy farmers to get more return from their farms through knowledge transfer. Feeding for young stock is very important in this regard", says Klaas de Jong, COO at A-ware, in a press release.

A lot of profit to be made in the field of calf milk replacer

Calf rearing offers opportunities
Denkavit will actively share knowledge with Royal A-ware dairy farmers through training and workshops in the field of calf rearing. This is done in collaboration with other specialists, such as ForFarmers. "We notice that there is still a lot to be gained in the field of calf milk replacer. With the right nutrition you can already create a considerable difference in results with regard to the growth and development of calves", says Annemarie de Jong, project leader Dairy Academy Oenkerk. 

Denkavit is a specialist in young stock nutrition and is active in more than 50 countries. The company's home base is Voorthuizen. The power supply is developed in close collaboration with partners, which means that the collaboration with A-ware fits well within the company's strategy.
