The sires recommended for weanling production in this catalogue rank highly for weaning weight and calf quality, at high reliabilities. They consistently produce numerous champions and top prices at weanling show and sales around the country. Finishing Specialist The superior sires for finishing are the sires which will efficiently produce heavy, high grade, high value carcasses. The sires recommended for finishing in this catalogue rank highly for carcass weight and carcass conformation at high reliabilities. Replacement The superior sires for replacements are those which will deliver solid, hard working cows.

The sires recommended in this catalogue for replacement are well proven. Pedigree A pedigree royalty fee applies to these sires at the time of registration of pedigree progeny.

Getting cows cycling

O Correct Body Condition Score O Easy calvings O Treat high risk cows as above O Separation of the cow and calf 3 weeks before breeding is an excellent and simple way of getting cows cycling. This can be done easily by having an opening from the creep area out into a paddock and locking out the calves by day initially, and into the creep at night, allowing them to suck twice a day. This will get cows cycling 3 weeks earlier as was demonstrated on the ‘better farms.

High risk cows need to be treated for uterine infections 28 days after calving by your vet. High risk cows are cows that had difficult calvings, retained afterbirth, caesareans and those passing a discharge. Research has shown that Metricure at Day 28 followed by PG 10 days later to be effective. Any cows calved 40 days not detected in heat needs to be examined by your vet.

BCS- Correct body condition score is crucial to getting cows cycling and achieving high conception rates. Autumn cows need to be in a BCS of 3-3.25 at breeding, Spring calving cows can be slightly less. Minimise BCS loss from calving to breeding to 0.5. Always separate dry cows and milking cows as first calvers. Thin cows and those with little milk need to be supplemented after calving until they go back incalf, the level of supplementation will depend on the silage quality.

Synchronisation Synchronisation is an excellent way to increase the number of cows or heifers served with minimum heat detection. However it is not a substitute for poor management. Cows have to be in good body condition and calved at least 40 days Synchronisation Protocol for AI at Observed Heat Sun Dec. 1st DAY 0 PRID or CIDR and GnRH (eg 2.5ml Receptal) Sun Dec. 8th DAY 7 PG (eg 5ml Lutalyse or 2ml Estrumate) Mon Dec. 9th DAY 8 PRID or CIDR OUT Wed Dec. 11th DAY 10 AI at observed heat 12th, 13th, 14th Dec watch carefully for heats

AM AM AM AM

Animals with low BCS <2.5 have increase chance of conceiving with AI at observed heat as opposed to fixed timed AI. Synchronisation Protocol for AI at Fixed Time Sun Dec. 1st DAY 0 PRID or CIDR and GnRH (eg 2.5ml Receptal) Sun Dec. 8th DAY 7 PG ( eg 5ml Lutalyse or 2ml Estrumate) Mon Dec. 9th DAY 8 PRID or CIDR OUT Tues Dec. 10th DAY 9 GnRH (eg 2.5ml Receptal) Weds Dec. 11th DAY 10 AI all cows 12th, 13th, 14th Dec watch carefully for late heats

AM AM AM PM AM –NOON

The second GnRH should be timed 36 hours after PRID or CIDR removal and AI 18 hours after this injection. PRID, CIDR, GnRH (Receptal, Ovarelin), PG (Lutalyse, Estrumate, Enzaprost, Cyclix) are all POM medicines

Synchronisation Programme for maiden heifers 30th November

Day 0

Introduce vasectomised bull 1 week in advance or

1st to 7th Dec.

Day 1-7

AI heifers when on heat. Will get 1/3 this week.

7th or 8th Dec

Day 7 or 8

Inject PG to all heifers not bred, usually 2/3 of them

Apply scratch cards or crayons

A vasectomised bull or some other form of heat detection aid is essential A vasectomised bull fitted with a chinball harness is the best way to heat detect sucklers; the presence of the bull will induce cows into heat and he will work 24 hours 7 days a week.

AI heifers when on heat 9 -11 or 10 to 12th th

th

Majority will be on heat 48-72 hours post injection. Be extra vigilant at this time.

th

18th or 19th 20th -22st or 21st to 23rd

Day 18 or 19

Reinject PG to those not bred. Should be very few heifers. AI heifers when on heat or 72 and 96 hours post 2nd PG injection. Watch for all repeats
