There are several advantages to late weaning. It is more natural and results in less stress for the ewe and lambs. There is less risk of the ewe developing mastitis since her milk production has declined significantly by the time the lambs are removed. Late weaning allows the producer to take advantage of available forage for lambs. It enables the producer to keep ewes and lambs in the same management group. 2, record 1, English, - late%20weaning

Un objectif de base lorsqu'on élève des génisses laitières est de leur assurer un bon départ dès la naissance. Ceci est possible en leur donnant une ration hautement digestible, ayant une haute teneur en protéines et en énergie comme le lait entier ou un substitut lacté à haute teneur en matières grasses. Le sevrage se fait aussitôt que possible, avec un aliment de démarrage à texture grossière et au goût agréable. 4, record 2, French, - aliment%20de%20d%C3%A9marrage

L'élevage des jeunes bovins : 1) phase lactée 2) phase d’élevage. 1) Phase lactée :[...] Dans les races à viandes, le veau accompagne sa mère au pâturage jusqu'à 7 ou 8 mois, d’où un sevrage progressif [...]; dans les races laitières au contraire, [...] le veau est séparé de sa mère soit à sa naissance, soit au cours de ses premières semaines. Dans ce cas, on lui donne systématiquement le lait produit par sa mère dans les premiers jours [...], alors qu'au bout de cette période, on peut remplacer le lait maternel commercialisé par des aliments d’allaitement plus économique(poudre de lait écrémé) [...]. Par ailleurs, on distribue précocement des aliments concentrés [...] et du foin de qualité pour permettre au jeune veau de développer rapidement son rumen [...].

Durant les 4 premiers mois de sa vie, voire même les 6 premiers mois, le lait maternel ou le lait 1er âge couvre les besoins nutritionnels de votre enfant. C’est entre son 4ème et son 6ème mois que le lait de suite (lait 2ème âge) peut prendre le relais jusqu’à l’âge de 12 mois; 500 ml est un minimum pour satisfaire ses besoins. Enrichi en fer, en acides gras essentiels et en vitamines (C, D et E...), la composition du lait de suite convient beaucoup mieux à votre enfant que le lait de vache. Il peut lui être donné dans un biberon, dans des purées et des potages. 4, record 4, French, - lait%20de%20suite
