Heat detection now available on contract basis

摘要

Is she or isn't she on heat? How many times have you asked that question as you get the cows in to milk and can't decide if the cow that is messing about is coming on heat? And how many times has pressure of work meant that you missed catching her standing and didn't serve her?Sounds familiar? Then a new contract heat detection and Al service being offered by Genus Breeding may be the solution. "Contract breeding is already used heavily in the major US dairy states where trained Al technicians take on the responsibility of heat detection and fertility management in the same way that farmers here call in a contractor for slurry spreading or silage making," explains Cenus regional sales director lan Hildon.
