الإسهال الغذّائي في العجلِ   

Introduction

Calf diarrhea is the single most important cause of death in

milk-fed calves. Even when calves survive, the increased

labor requirements for their caring, together with veterinary

and drug bills, make scours a costly problem for calf rearers.

Furthermore, their potential productivity is likely to be

decreased by setbacks in early life.

The causes of scours, particularly in calves under three weeks

of age, are complex. There is usually no one single cause,

with contributing factors being calf management, diet, the

environment and the presence of pathogens. Prevention and

early treatment with fluid replacement (electrolyte therapy)

can avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics.
