All bulls are compared to a “base” cow with EBI = €0. As the base cow has been updated from a cow born in 1995 to one born in 2005 the EBI for all animals has been reduced by €71. Any change other than this is due to extra information in the animals proof. • The ranking of bulls is not effected by the base change • It applies to all animals equally • Selection criteria should be adjusted • Check your own herds genetic level when selecting bulls • See icbf.com or progressivegenetics.ie for more details

A.I. on your maiden heifers: The best paid work? • Heifers typically €50 higher EBI than cows • Higher Conception Rates • Possibility of using sexed semen • Increase number of possible replacements

• A.I. for easy calving • A.I. for shorter gestation • Easy calving Dairy or Beef A.I. bulls considerably easier than the national average calving difficulty (typical stock Bulls)

• Heat detection aids make life easier • Synchronisation programmes for heifers are easy and cost effective (see below)

YAD: Diamond Andy 1% of heifer calvings scored as difficult vs national average of 7%

ZTP: Turbridmore Pride 3% of heifer calvings scored as difficult vs national average of 7%

Get your Heifers bred quickly & easily: Simple, reliable sync program Day 0 to Day 6 Observe Heats 5 Times per Day A.I. Heifers with Observed heat (AM/PM rule) *Prostaglandin injection = Prostaglandin such as Estrumate or Lutalyse

Day 7 Prostaglandin* injection to heifers not Bred

Day 8 - 13 A.I. Heifers with Observed heat (AM/PM rule)

• Heifers must be cycling to respond to prostaglandin synchronisation regimes. • Ensure that heifers are well grown (>320 kg BW) and in good body condition (>3.25) to maximise likelihood that they have commenced cycling prior to mating start date

Day 17 Prostaglandin* injection to heifers not bred. Fixed Time A.I. @ 72 & 96 Hours • Heifers are your best genetics • Use easy calving bulls • Higher conception rates • Breed more replacements or free up cows for high value beef A.I.

Sexed semen guidelines

• Fertility will be reduced compared to normal semen • Use on well grown heifers in good condition • If using on cows only high fertility sub-index cows in good body condition with no calving, metabolic or health problems in this lactation. • Excellent semen handling as outlined here • Experienced A.I. Technician • Natural heats are best • Semen produced to highest standards • Use a team of bulls

Impuls

Protocol for using frozen semen Selecting the correct animals:

• Use on well grown heifers in good condition • If using on cows only high fertility sub-index cows in good body condition with no calving, metabolic or health problems in this lactation

Reproductive health in cows and heifers

• Reduce disease known to impair reproductive performance by early diagnosis, treatment or preferably prevention by vaccination e.g. Bovine viral diarrhoea (bvd) and leptospirosis. • Ensure that the post-calving cow has resumed normal cyclic activity and that the uterus has prepared itself for a subsequent pregnancy and is free of infection or damage • Cows with concurrent disease e.g. Mastitis or lameness are less fertile and should not be selected.

Handling sexed semen

• Use tweezers, never fingers to handle straws. • Never take out an individual straw to look at it and then put it back. It will almost certainly damage the sperm. • Minimise the length of time that a straw container is kept above the liquid nitrogen level while removing the straw to be used. • Take no more than five seconds (if you need longer, lower the canister back into the nitrogen for at least ten seconds before trying again).

Straw thawing

• Check the temperature of the water in your thawing device with a thermometer. • Only remove one straw at a time for thawing. • Flick the straw to remove any trapped nitrogen. • Thaw the straw straight away in an electric thawer at 37°C for 40 seconds. • Thoroughly dry the straw; water kills sperm. • Use clean straw cutters, or sharp scissors to cut off the sealed end circa 1 cm from top with a straight cut. • Once thawed don’t let the straw cool down again. • Pre-warm the A.I. equipment and keep it insulated until the insemination (especially in cold weather). • Animals should be inseminated within five minutes of removing

the straw from the tank. • Once thawed, straws cannot be re-frozen. • Do not split straws.

Service time 1. Heat observation

• Observe heifers / cows at least three times daily for at least 15 minutes especially in between milking and feeding times. • Many cows may show very short periods of standing heat. Evening heat detection is essential. Record standing heats accurately to verify regular oestrus cycle length. Cows or heifers with abnormal cycle length will be less fertile. • Other signs of oestrus e.g. Mounting, chin resting, vocalization can be less reliable signs of heat. Less valuable semen can be used to serve these animals, even using two inseminations 24 hours apart. This is not advised for sexed semen. • Heat detection aids are very important

2. The service period

• During this period you should ensure stress free handling to ensure best results, service should be carried out 12 hours after the onset of standing oestrus. Heat synchronisation programmes should only be used in conjunction with good heat detection and not based on fixed time a.i. • Animals should be restrained so that they cannot move forwards , backwards or sideways. A proper service area/crush are essential. Quietly move animals in pairs or small groups. Animals on their own become frightened and stressed.

3. A.I. technique

• Only inseminate heifers that have been identified in standing oestrus. Heifers do have a small cervix which can make it difficult to pass the a.i. gun through. • It is important that semen deposition is in the uterine body and not in the cervix or either of the horns.

Progressive Genetics offer no fertility guarantees on sexed semen. Large herd-toherd and season-to-season variability can occur. Progressive genetics can not be held liable for any loss occurring due to performance of sexed semen

Reduce Dry-Cow Antibiotic usage by only treating high SCC Cows

Pregnancy Diagnosis from milk samples

1. Simple: uses milk recording or other milk From €3.60 sample per test 2. Easy: No extra work 3. Effective: Comparable accuracy to scanning 4. Complements scanning and fits into a managed fertility programme. 5. Use from 28 days post breeding

What is High SCC costing?

A high SCC is an indicator of an infected quarter(s). This infection reduces the quantity of milk produced - the higher the SCC, the bigger the impact. This can be very costly, even cows with an SCC between 200-300,000 are losing over 300 litres per lactation! Source: Costcheck, Animal Health Ireland
