Improving reproductive efficiency in a beef herd can be as easy as one trip through the chute. Dr. Joe Gillespie, professional services veterinarian with Boehringer-Ingelheim, said beef producers can better forecast calving season and related management with basic estrus synchronization.
Gillespie said just one administration of prostaglandin can introduce synchronization within a herd.
Of course, there are also several other factors to consider in order to maintain reproductive efficiency.
With so many decisions to be made, Gillespie said it’s important to work closely with a herd veterinarian to put a plan in place.
