Control Estrous Synchronization Costs
📍 Control Estrous Synchronization Costs
In most parts of the country, cows are recovering from calving season and getting ready for breeding season to begin in a few weeks. It's important to get these cows rebred to maintain a tight and consistent calving window for the next calving season. Estrous synchronization can help, but there are outside costs.
In a BoviNews webinar, Dr. Jordan Thomas from the Mizzou talks about how to manage synchronization costs to get the most out of your reproduction program.
He's joined by Dr. Mark Johnson from Oklahoma State University who discusses options to make sure you're using the right sires for your operation.

➡️ The Right Body Condition Makes Economic Sense
Body condition is critically important to getting cows through calving safely and onto success in the next breeding season. Cows that are too thin will have a problem rebreeding, while cows that are too fat are wasting your money in extra feed costs.
In a BoviNews webinar, experts talk about the management aspects of getting cows through calving successfully and set up for a successful breeding season.
In the webinar, Dr. Justin Rhinehart from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville talks about reproduction management while Dr. Eric Bailey from the Mizzou College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources discusses nutritional needs of the calving cow.
