2018 Export Directory

Holstein World | July 2018 | 9

APPROACH TO GLOBAL SUSTAINABILITY STgenetics® realizes the impact feed conversion can have on the profitability and sustainability of dairy operations worldwide, so we developed a direct feed conversion index that dairy farmers can use to identify cattle that optimize growth and production on the least feed.

The EcoFeedTM Index is the next genetic revolution in the dairy industry and follows STgenetics’ breakthrough SexedULTRATM semen sorting process and SexedULTRA 4MTM high fertility semen, the only sexed semen that achieves conception rates comparable to conventional semen.

What do these terms mean and where do they fit in?

he one goal of breeders over the past 100 years or so has been to increase the genetic enhanced productivity of their herd by using genetically superior bulls, via artificial insemination (AI), proven by daughter proofs so to lift the genetic ship from the top side of the pedigree. The preceding statement has proven true because most dairy (and beef ) herds are comprised of a small percentage of genetically superior animals, a large percent of average animals and a small percentage of genetically inferior animals. In the past, it has been difficult to correctly identify superior females until they were advanced in age. Also, there was the difficulty in the dairy industry, due to reproductive

inefficiencies and young stock raising issues, to generate enough females per year calving to allow culling of females prior to calving due to genetic deficit alone. These reproductive inefficiencies have decreased and combined to some usage of gender selected semen, there is now an abundance of replacement heifers available. Using genomic testing, which is as accurate for heifers as for young bulls prior to daughter proof, one can accurately predict the genetic package delivered from the female as well as the male. If one has an excess of heifers, one can utilize genomics to decide on who to raise and who to move to other uses. Furthermore, instead of having one calf a year using a bull for natural service or AI, the

multiplication of the high genetic animals can be achieved using embryo transfer (ET) techniques.

Embryo transfer has been utilized in the cattle business for about 40 years. Though initially embryos were recovered and transferred surgically, by 1976 non-surgical embryo recovery was being done and by the early 1980s non-surgical transfer became the normal procedure.

Freezing of embryos for direct transfer (direct thaw embryos move from thaw bath to recipient, like with AI) using ethylene glycol as a cryoprotectant agent has become the industry norm since around 2000.

A cow will ovulate one (sometimes two) oocyte(s) every 21 days. During the 21 cycle

multiple follicles, each with an oocyte, develop in wave-like patterns, but only one becomes dominant and ovulates. Embryo transfer consists in rescuing some of the oocytes that would be lost during the cycle. After ovulation, the oocyte and sperm meet in the uterine tubule where fertilization and the first 4 days of development occurs.

The embryo moves inside the uterus at 5 days post ovulation and is surrounded by a shell called zona pellucida until 8 days. The Zona Pellucida is protective to the early embryo. ET work can be performed with 7-day old embryos due to its location in the uterus and the zona pellucida protection. These are the two most common way of producing bovine embryos: • In vivo – inside the cow – or conventional ET or flush The donor is stimulated with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), so several oocytes can mature, brought into estrus and bred either naturally or artificially. The uterus is flushed vaginally via catheter 7 days later and the 7-day old embryos are recovered from the flush fluid.

• In vitro – inside an incubator or IVF (in vitro fertilization) or IVP (in vitro produced) The oocytes growing inside follicles in the donor’s ovary are visualized on ultrasound and aspirated with a ultrasound guided needle/tube system connected to a vacuum pump and sucked into a filter. This procedure is also called OPU (ovum pick up). The recovered oocytes would be graded on quality and sent to the lab in a heated incubator. The oocytes will go through a maturation procedure for 24 hours to be ready to receive the sperm for fertilization. The zygote (oocyte post fertilization) is cultured for 7 days at which point it is implanted to a recipient or frozen.

The embryos produced by either technique must be graded by stage and quality by a qualified individual (preferably AETA Certified) and can be either transferred fresh or frozen. Higher grade embryos will have greater pregnancy success. Lower genetic merit animals can be used as recipients (surrogate mothers). The recipients must be synchronized so that they come in heat together; 7 or 8 days after heat they receive a 7-day old embryo. Recipient management, quality of recipient and synchronization protocol/ protocol compliance is as important as embryo quality. The embryos can be frozen and stored in a nitrogen tank for later use.

At present, there are three different rationales to perform some sort of embryo transfer (conventional or IVF). One is to produce offspring, either male or female, to sell as seed stock - this has been

the traditional thought behind ET production.

Embryo sales fall into this category as well.

The second is to improve the genetic quality within one’s own herd. This is usually coupled with genomic selection, so the very highest individuals for a set of traits are selected. This is interesting if one thinks about it. Using ET, sexed semen and genomic testing, one can rapidly change the complexion of the herd, so to change the ratio of high end animals from the usual 10 – 15 percent of the herd to, theoretically, the entire herd. Usually the resulting embryos are placed in lower genetic merit recipients. A good rule of thumb to use with ET is to expect between 2 and 8 embryos per procedure - so 0 to 4 pregnancies per procedure.

The third rational on utilization of embryo transfer is biosecurity. You can purchase animals (embryos) and bring to your farm without risk of transporting infectious disease to your premises.

So now one decides to embark on embryo transfer with a donor or group of donors. There are some questions that one should ask one’s self, these being: 1. Why am I doing this - what’s the desired outcome?

2. Is the desired outcome realistic given the average of say 2 pregnancies per collection?

3. Are the costs to be incurred in line with my expectations?

So, let’s cut to the chase. Pros and cons for conventional versus IVP embryo production.

Conventional pros - in essence - reliability 1. This is a procedure performed a lot, results (pregnancy percentage) are pretty consistent and predictable.

2. Cost is predictable as outcomes are pretty consistent.

Conventional cons - in essence - time 1. Cow must be open.

2. She should be > 60 days in milk at initiation.

3. Cow must have a functional, undamaged reproductive tract.

4. One can flush a donor every 30 to 45 days at maximum.

5. Need at least 4 units of sexed semen for successful outcomes using sexed semen.

IVF pros - in essence - flexibility 1. Can do a cow from 2 weeks post calving until 120 - 150 days in calf.

2. Can do her every 14 days.

3. One can combine one donor’s oocytes with other donors (using 1 bull) and group fertilize to cut lab costs.

4. One can split up a donor’s oocytes for mating with multiple bulls (in multiple dishes).

5. One can use 1 straw of semen on multiple donors.

6. One can reverse sort frozen semen to give gender selected embryos at a higher percentage of desired gender than purchased gender selected semen. Also, can gender sort bulls not available as sorted semen (if allowed under contract).

7. Results with sexed semen are better using IVF as opposed to conventional flush.

IVF cons - in essence - risk 1. Cost. Day in, day out the cost per calf will be 1.5 to 3 times more than conventional flush.

2. Variable outcomes. This can be really aggravating.

3. Difficultly/variability of pregnancy rates with frozen thawed IVF embryos.

4. Variation in donor and sire fertility is much more apparent with IVF than with conventional flushing.

5. Transport of oocytes and embryos both to lab and back.

It is my opinion that a mixture of conventional and IVF embryo transfer works best to allow for all recipient heats to be covered by embryos, fresh or frozen.

Reproduction failure is affected by heat, changes in management, etc. To have a successful embryo transfer program, donors and recipients must be healthy, on a sensible vaccination protocol and not be under stress. Follow ET veterinarian instructions. Don’t cut corners. The recipient program makes or breaks the enterprise of ET. In general, one can look at AI conception rate and this will mirror the ET conception rate.

For better guidance and results, all embryo procedures should be performed by AETA (American Embryo Transfer Association) certified practitioners. They will use the “certified” logo seen here.
