Linseed cake produced at Mooste experimental station contained an average 89.1 per cent of dry matter, 30.4 per cent of crude protein, 17.2 per cent of crude fat, 258 g/kg of digestible protein and 13.1 MJ/kg of metabolizable energy. The linamarin content in fat-free DM of linseed cakes in different batches was between 0.4...1.0 per cent. It is recommended to add 15 per cent linseed cake to a concentrate for calves, this increases the protein and energy content of concentrates. The daily gain of the calves of the trial group was 701 g on average. If calves have digestion disturbances in their first life months feeding of precooked linseed is recommended: 1 kg linseed and 10 l water should be boiled for 10 minutes. After having been fed with it thrice the calves recovered. Calves recovered usually after thrice treatment with precooked linseed
