* The time listed for “Fixed-time AI” should be considered as the approximate average time of insemination. This should be based on the number of cows to inseminate, labor, and facilities.
These protocol sheets were assembled by the Beef Reproduction Task Force. Programs are intended to promote sustainable food production systems by the beef industry through sound reproductive management practices for replacement heifers and postpartum cows. The Beef Reproduction Task Force recommends working with a licensed veterinarian for proper use and application of all reproductive hormones. Approved 8-19-2019
