- STORING
AND HANDLING FROZEN SEMEN
-
The success of a synchronization-breeding program depends on prior planning, teamwork, and attention to detail by everyone involved.

SYNCHRONIZATION ADDS VALUE TO A.I.
-
The nice thing about estrous synchronization is that you get the advantages
of AI while cutting down on detection and insemination time. Granted, it's pretty busy for a few days, but then you're done. That's it.

CAN IMPROVE A.I. AND ESTRUS SYNCHRONIZATION RESULTS
-
Looking for a way to improve results of your artificial insemination program? Then you may want to evaluate -- and then incorporate -- one of the three following heat synchronization systems that animal scientists have developed in recent years.

Heat (estrus) is simply the period of time when a cow or heifer
is sexually receptive and signals that an egg, ready to be fertilized, is
about to be released. It normally occurs every 18 to 24 days. In a natural
breeding program, the bull is the one that determines when a cow is in heat.
In an AI program, you make the decisions.

SUMMARIES TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF BREEDING
- The importance of sire-selection decisions comes into sharp focus
when you consider the staggering potential genetic contribution of a single
sire to the long-term performance of your breeding program.

- FINE-TUNED
NUTRITIONAL PROGRAM ENHANCES REPRODUCTION
-
While reproductive performance is vital to all breeding operations, purebred
breeders commonly use not only natural servicing but also artificial insemination and embryo transfer pro-grams to maximize their ability to produce the desired genetics in the most cost effective or productive form. Programs such as these tend to be pretty intense and potentially stressful to the animal.

SYNCHRONIZATION A VALUABLE TOOL IN MANAGEMENT OF COWS AND HEIFERS
- Estrus synchronization is a management tool that is being used
with increased frequency and can significantly increase the value of the
calf crop.

CAN REDUCE STRESS TO CATTLE BY IMPROVING HANDLING METHODS
- In most cases, stress is counter productive and reduces performance.
In addition to environment and nutrition, two of the most common animal stressors
include handling and transportation.

BULL VALUES REQUIRE PLANS
- It doesn't take much of a bull to make your cows pregnant. But
if you want to improve the herd, you must reach far beyond hamburger value.
