Reproductive Efficiency Vital for Breeding Season Success
Reproductive efficiency plays a crucial role in determining the success of the breeding season. A farm's effectiveness can be gauged by the percentage of cows cycling at the start of breeding, with 70-80% already cycling being a positive sign. This early cycling can lead to improved outcomes during artificial insemination, ensuring a greater proportion of cows become pregnant within the initial 30 days of breeding.
