Date Time

Beef Heifers - Conventional Semen FTAI Protocol

Administer

Date

Time

1 All animals inseminated in the same day without heat detection

Benefits of Synchronisation

Much easier heat detection as repeats occur over 2-4 day period

4 Makes calving to weaning management much easier & facilitates sale 3 Increases 3 & 6 week calving rate

5 Allows calves to be grouped together

Maximise the success of AI in Suckler Cows

1. Cow must have an easy calving

Difficult calvings is one of the biggest causes of cows being slow to return to service.

2. Nutrition and BCS at calving

The higher the BCS at calving the quicker the cow will resume cycling post calving. A BCS of 2.5+ is ideal.

3. Requirements for cows to express normal heat activity

Adequate space is necessary to allow mounting for heat detection.

Increased stocking density indoors reduces heat expression and more false heats will occur.

4. Break the strong maternal- offspring bond

Cows must cycle within 55 days of calving to achieve one calf per cow per year. Breaking the maternal bond will reduce the time to first heat by 4 weeks.

5. Avoid stress around the time of breeding

Avoid mixing cows from different groups during the breeding season especially 1st calved heifers.

6. Timing of insemation to maximise conception rates

The best time to inseminate is when animals are in standing heat and up to 12 hours after the end of standing heat.

7. Health

Ensure cows receive all vacinations 3 weeks prior to breeding.

8. Biosecurity

It’s everybody’s responsibility!

Maximise the success of AI in Maiden Heifers

Ensure that heifers meet the recommended target weights at breeding

This ensures The majority of heifers are cycling Heifers are well developed at calving & will calve easily Heifers are more likely to go in-calf within 60-80 days after their 1st calving.

Compliance reports can be provided to the inspector direct from your phone.
