Factors associated with calf mortality and poor growth of dairy heifer calves in northeast Germany	2020-09-24		.txt	text/plain	6076	362	59	A cross-sectional study was conducted on fifty German dairy farms to identify risk factors for high mortality and poor growth in calves. In the model "Risk factors associated with median ADG from birth to weaning", average daily weight gain (ADG) of calves from birth until twelve weeks of life was the dependent variable at herd level. For the investigation of associations between potential risk factors with calf mortality and ADG from birth to weaning a multivariable model each was built. The results of the present field study indicate that high calf mortality (> 5%), FPT in the neonate (serum protein < 55 g/l) and low ADG from birth to weaning (< 700 g/day) are still a problem on dairy farms under livestock production conditions in northeast Germany.	./cache/cord-350023-7wx5v9b8.txt	./txt/cord-350023-7wx5v9b8.txt
