Pregnancy rate of Artificial Insemination in beef cows after estrous synchronization at different region

Factors affecting pregnancy rate to estrous synchronization and fixed-time artificial insemination in beef cattle.

Application of AI in extensive beef cattle production would be facilitated by protocols that effectively synchronize ovarian follicular development and ovulation to enable fixed-time AI (TAI). The objectives were to determine whether use of a controlled internal drug release (CIDR) device to administer progesterone in a GnRH-based estrous synchronization protocol would optimize blood progestero...

Efficacy of Three Synchronization Protocols on the Pregnancy Rate in Lactating Dairy Crossbred Cows after Fixed Time Artificial Insemination

Background and Objective: Ineffective estrus detection is the foremost limiting factor in the fertility of farmed cattle worldwide. Therefore, this study investigates the effect of three synchronization protocols with Fixed Time Artificial Insemination (FTAI) on the pregnancy rate of crossbred dairy cows. Methodology: Ninety one cows were assigned to four groups where the Body Condition Score (...

Estrous Synchronization and Artificial Insemination in Sows: A Field Study

Comparison of progestin-based estrus synchronization protocols before fixed-time artificial insemination on pregnancy rate in beef heifers.

The objective of the experiment was to compare pregnancy rates resulting from fixed-time AI after administration of either 1 of 2 controlled internal drug release (CIDR)-based protocols. Heifers at 3 locations (location 1, n = 78; location 2, n = 61; and location 3, n = 78) were assigned to 1 of 2 treatments within reproductive tract scores (1 = immature to 5 = cycling) by age and BW. Heifers a...
