- W3200244477 abstract "The objective of this study was to compare the economic performance of an ear tag automated activity monitor system (AAM) versus a timed-AI (TAI) protocol in Holstein heifers. In total, 340 heifers were enrolled onto the study at 13.5 mo of age and randomly assigned to receive either an AAM (n = 170) or TAI (n = 170) protocol before breeding eligibility (D 0). Heifers in the AAM group were fitted with an ear tag AAM and bred based on high activity alert from the system. Heifers in the TAI group received a progesterone releasing intravaginal device on D −8, followed by device removal and prostaglandin on D −3 and gonadotropin-releasing hormone with TAI on D 0. In both treatments, the majority of heifers received sex-sorted semen for the first AI and conventional semen for subsequent AIs, with three opportunities to become pregnant. All heifers were diagnosed for pregnancy approximately 25 d post AI using transrectal ultrasonography, with confirmation at 30 and 45 d. Non-pregnant heifers in the TAI group, were resynchronized using the same TAI protocol. A partial budget was used to compare the costs and benefits of switching from a TAI to an AAM protocol in heifers, including protocol, labour, and rearing costs for each treatment, as well as estimated calf and milk value. Sensitivity analyses were also conducted to determine the effect of pregnancy per AI (P/AI), outsourcing AI, AAM tag cost and herd size on the net outcome. There was no difference in overall P/AI or days to pregnancy between treatments. However, number of AI was greater in the TAI than the AAM group. For the first AI, the P/AI was less in the TAI compared to the AAM group; however, the interval to first AI was less in TAI. There was minimal difference in performance for the second and third AI. There was a net gain of $11.97 per heifer when switching from a TAI to AAM protocol, due to the increased P/AI to the first AI and reduced cost of hormones. Several variables in the sensitivity analyses affected the net outcome. Considering only the first AI, switching to an AAM collar and a larger herd size all increased the net gain. Considering a greater P/AI to the first AI in the TAI group, outsourcing AI, using more AAM ear tags, and smaller herd sizes resulted in a net loss when switching from TAI to AAM. The AAM system resulted in exceptional P/AI and may be an economically viable alternative to improve heifer reproductive efficiency in herds with suboptimal P/AI to TAI." @default.
