From 2.5lbs to 3.23lbs average daily gain, under 2% death loss, and a 60-day health turnaround, Profectus is measurably making a difference for producers.
In this episode, Kyle Verhoek shares how his calf program went from battling health issues to driving measurable performance gains with Profectus Livestock Solutions. By implementing an integrated vaccine protocol, amino acid balanced diets, and individualized calf tracking through EID and Cattler, his team transformed both calf health and rate of gain.
Even after moving calves three different times between weaning and closeout, performance held strong. This is a real world look at precision nutrition, proactive herd health, and data driven calf management for dairy beef and backgrounding operations. If you want better gains, stronger calves, and systems that actually work under pressure, this episode is for you.
