Advantages of the program:

By contract, we guarantee the buying-back of calves produced according to the conditions specified in the contract. Calves should be udder fed by their mother for at least 6 months before being bought. The calf buy-back guarantee reduces the partner’s risks and provides it with a cost-effective market. Investments are thus amortised in a relatively short time and at the same time our partner is confident in his income, being exempt from extra costs for feed and labour.
