Beef Cattle Reproduction - 2011 Cow-Calf Clinic
The presentations below are intended to give cow/calf producers a better understanding of how reproduction efficiency dramatically affects cow herd profits. Cows that calve early wean heavier calves and tend to maintain a yearly calving interval. Well designed nutritional programs for lactating cows and developing heifers will improve reproductive efficiency.
