Abstract
Suckling cows following milk extraction has been found to increase total milk yield (Bar-Peled et al, 1995; Margerison et al, 1995) and allows calves to be reared by suckling. These restricted suckling systems are common in developing countries and have been applied in developed countries (Boden and Leaver, 1994; Sandoval and Leaver, 1995). There are few long term studies of restricted suckling which include milk yield, milk composition and calf development. The objective of this experiment was to study the effect of restricted suckling on lactation, reproduction and calf development in Colombia.
