Pregnancy rate among beef heifers from timed insemination following synchronization with a progestin treatment.
Five trials were conducted with 958 virgin beef heifers to evaluate the effects of various breeding management methods on pregnancy rate at synchronized estrus and during a 45-day artificial insemination (AI) season. Synchronization was achieved with the progestin treatment regimen Syncro-Mate-B (SMB). Pregnancy rate at first service and cumulative pregnancy rate were affected (P less than .01)...
متن کاملComparison of long-term progestin-based estrus synchronization protocols in beef heifers.
Two experiments evaluated long-term progestin-based estrus-synchronization programs on the basis of potential for use in facilitating fixed-time AI in estrous cycling and prepubertal beef heifers. In Exp. 1, heifers were assigned to 1 of 2 treatments by age, BW, and estrous cyclicity status. Heifers assigned to the melengestrol acetate-PGF(2α) protocol (MGA-PG; n = 50) received MGA (0.5 mg·anim...
متن کاملComparison 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...
متن کاملComparison of long-term progestin-based protocols to synchronize estrus before fixed-time artificial insemination in beef heifers.
Two experiments were conducted to compare pregnancy rates resulting from fixed-time AI (FTAI) after administration of 1 of 2 long-term controlled internal drug release (CIDR)-based protocols. Heifers were assigned to treatment by age, BW, and pubertal status. The CIDR Select-treated heifers (Exp. 1, n = 37; Exp. 2, n = 192) received a CIDR (1.38 g of progesterone) from d 0 to 14, followed by 10...
متن کاملNorgestomet implants synchronize estrus and enhance fertility in beef heifers subsequent to a timed artificial insemination.
Three trials involving 128 heifers were conducted to determine whether norgestomet implants administered during the mid- and late luteal phases after breeding could be used to synchronize a second estrus in nonpregnant, inseminated heifers without adversely affecting pregnancy in pregnant heifers. All heifers were initially synchronized with Syncro-Mate B and artificially inseminated 47 h after...
