This article presents materials on the study of the effectiveness of the inclusion of crushed corn grain in the amount of 30 and 40% of the weight of compound feed for calves of 10-65 days of age, expressed in obtaining average daily gains in live weight of young animals during the experiment period of 634 and 627 g or 1.6% higher than the control value, while reducing the cost of growth – by 4.4 and 4.1 percent. It was found that feeding compound feed with the inclusion of 50% crushed corn grain to calves aged 10-65 days, contributed to a decrease in animal productivity by 5.6% (589 g), with an increase in feed costs for production by 6.0%. It was determined that feeding young cattle at the age of 10-65 days of compound feeds with the introduction of 30 and 40% of crushed corn grain by weight, contributed to a reduction in the cost of their diet by 2.86 and 3.62%
