Get your Heifers bred quickly & easily: Simple, reliable sync program Day 0 to Day 6 Observe Heats 5 Times per Day A.I. Heifers with Observed heat (AM/PM rule)

Day 7 Prostaglandin injection to heifers not Bred

Prostaglandin injection = Prostaglandin such as Estrumate or Lutalyse

Day 8 - 13 A.I. Heifers with Observed heat (AM/PM rule)

• Heifers must be cycling to respond to prostaglandin synchronisation regimes. • Ensure that heifers are well grown (>320 kg BW) and in good body condition (>3.25) to maximise likelihood that they have commenced cycling prior to mating start date

Beef Sires Dairy Sires

Day 17 Prostaglandin injection to heifers not bred. Fixed Time A.I. @ 72 & 96 Hours • Heifers are your best genetics • Use easy calving bulls • Higher conception rates • Breed more replacements or free up cows for high value beef A.I.

UK av heat detection rate

With heat detection aid

The importance of good heat detection rates on fertility cannot be underestimated. If cows are not seen bulling, they cannot be served or get pregnant! The more cows you serve at the right time, the more that will get pregnant. So if you increase your heat detection rate from 40 to 60%, for example, then you will increase the number of pregnant cows over a period of time by 50%.

Why Milk Record? SCC Reduction Increase milk value for A+B-C Management Information Access to Disease testing

3. 4. 5. 6.

Milk recording & A+B-C

• Low milk solids cows are costing money • You cannot see fat & protein in milk, you must test for it. Your best cows can surprise you

• Target low value cows for culling or Beef AI • In order to speed up the rate of milk solids im-

provement you breed from your best and breed the rest to beef.

Table: Value of high vs low solids milk: Over €200!! Value of Milk, Fat & Protein may change slightly over time and is a guide only

Charges as above for Electronic or Manual systems Charged per recording Minimum 4 visits for Spring Calving Herd ie every 2 months in milking period (for official recording) Minimum 6 visits for All Year herd ie every 2 months (for official recording) In order to control an SCC problem it may be beneficial to record more frequently: eg. Every month

Mastitis ID Test

Identifies bacteria causing high SCC/Mastitis Allows for selection of appropriate treatment Identifies management changes which may prevent future infection Is mastitis environmental or contagious? Is milking routine to blame or problems with bedding etc?

Pricing

Progressive Johnes Check €2.75 per cow per test (2 or more full herd tests per year) Ad-Hoc milk testing outside program : €3.50 per sample

Management factors for Johnes Disease reduction • Finding out status of your herd • Identifying infected and potentially infected cows

• Feeding colostrum to calves • Have individual calving pens • Cleaning calving pens between calvings • Don’t spread slurry on calves grazing area • Johnes disease protocols if buying cattle • Breeding policy for infected cows

See AHI’s “A Guide to Johnes disease” for more information. www.animalhealthireland.ie Discuss Johnes disease with your veterinary practitioner.

5. Reports sent shortly after milk recording reports

• Despite low sensitivity of current tests for detecting infected cattle before they become sick with Johne’s disease, real progress can be made with an effective, planned approach using the guidelines from AHI and your vet. • Johnes Milk ELISA testing is an essential part of a Johnes control plan that also involves other test methods, management, calf feeding protocols, biosecurity etc. Testing alone will not provide effective control of Johnes Disease in infected herds. • Veterinary On-Farm Risk Assessment & Management Protocols (under AHI programme) are a very important part of Johnes control. • Interpret all Johne’s tests in conjunction with a trained veterinary practitioner. Check AHI programme rules for dealing with animals with milk ELISA positive. Use knowledge of the history of MAP in the herd, the age and the breed of the cattle tested, where the animals were raised and the likelihood of MAP introduction through frequent animal additions from other herds. • WAIT and retest to gain confidence in a particular cow’s status. Repeated testing gives greater confidence. • Blood & Milk ELISA tests have low sensitivity in the earlier stages of infection when animals are not obviously ill but high specificity. There will be frequent false negatives and few false positives. Repeat testing increases confidence in results. Progressive Genetics cannot be held responsible for false negative or positive results.

Important Notes • Minimum 3 months after TB test • All cows must be tested, minimum of 7 days calved

• Electronic (DIY) Milk Recording: supervised sampling required

• Technician Assisted (Manual) Milk Recording: • • • •

No extra requirements, Please ensure recorder is aware Johnes testing is required. Two herd tests per year for AHI programme Infected herds may wish to test more often 3 month gap between Johnes tests Ensure all cows in herd are tested twice per year
