When compared to calf milk replacers, whole milk contains a variety of beneficial components, such as growth enzymes and hormones, and has a higher energy level. For better sales of calf milk replacers, manufacturers are working on adding nutrient-rich substances that aid digestion, strengthen immunity, adjust gut pH, and maintain gut integrity in calves to compensate for variances in energy supply.

Several measures, such as increasing feeding rates and changing the composition of calf milk replacers to boost nutrient intake, have also been employed to speed up the growth rate of calves during the milk phase, so that it can align with the demand for calf milk replacers.

While the globe struggles to feed its growing population, the rise of the organic and vegan movements has wreaked havoc on the dairy business, which hampers the rate of calf milk replacers market share.
