Abstract

Surplus male dairy calves experience significant health challenges after arrival at the veal and dairy beef facilities. To curb these challenges, the engagement of multiple stakeholders is needed starting with improved care on some dairy farms and better management of transportation. Differing management strategies are also needed if calves arrive at veal and dairy beef facilities under poor condition.

Surplus dairy calves face many challenges between birth and arrival at a calf rearing facility, which predispose them to disease and reduced performance.

Physiologically compromised calves are more vulnerable to infectious diseases, and long transport duration is associated with poor health and performance upon arrival at rearing facilities.
“Physiologically compromised calves are more vulnerable to infectious diseases, and long transport duration is associated with poor health and performance upon arrival at rearing facilities [8, 11].”

Dehydration, weight loss, energy depletion, and exhaustion are commonly reported outcomes of long-distance transport and are accompanied by negative affective states such as hunger and thirst.
“Dehydration, weight loss, energy depletion, and exhaustion are commonly reported outcomes of long-distance transport (reviewed by [5, 8]) and are accompanied by negative affective states such as hunger and thirst [9, 10].”
From Effects of age and feeding protocols on the metabolic and physiological condition of unweaned calves during and after long-distance transport (2026) · cites this paper as [8]
BW at arrival is determined by various factors including calf breed, health, BW at birth and prior to transport, feeding and management practices on the farm of origin, and transport conditions.
“Naturally, higher BW correlates with older age, but BW at arrival is also determined by various other factors, including calf breed, health, BW at birth and prior to transport, which is dependent on feeding and management practices on the farm of origin, and the conditions of transport itself such as the season, temperature, duration, feeding protocols and fasting periods [8, 54].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
