Description
Reproductive performance is key to maintaining a cow productive and guaranteeing the next lactation. To achieve good results, we need to improve our knowledge about the reproduction of transition cows: how do we manage them in order to be reproductively successful? With that in mind, our guest Dr. Stephen LeBlanc and I discuss, in this episode of The Dairy Podcast Show, the main challenges in the reproduction of transition cows, metritis management, goals for reproductive parameters, and the use of technology to detect early reproductive diseases. “So that's our challenge: keeping cows healthy, giving them the inputs of nutrition and management, and so on and so forth, so that they are set up with what they need for the success of their reproduction.” – Dr. Stephen LeBlanc What you’ll learn:Highlight (00:00)Introduction (1:15)The influence of the transition period on the reproductive performance of cows (2:25)The indicators of success in reproductive performance (8:39)Resilient cows and reproduction (15:34)Pregnancy rates: what’s the new goal?
