- W4205406979 abstract "Abstract This retrospective study analyzed the effect of bull:cow ratio on pregnancy rates of cows returning to estrus after enrollment in fixed-time artificial insemination (TAI). Data were compiled over the course of 6 breeding seasons between 2014 and 2017 from the Virginia Department of Corrections herd containing 15 farms and 141 groups of cows (average 44 cows/group). Multiparous cows aged 2 years and older (n = 6002) were exposed to estrus synchronization. Non-pregnant cows after TAI (n = 3079, average 21 cows/group) were exposed to natural service with bulls diagnosed as fertile by a breeding soundness exam. Percent data were given an arcsine transformation. A one-way ANOVA evaluated TAI rates by season and a linear regression was performed to compare conception rates to the bull:cow ratio. Pregnancy rate to TAI among groups averaged 53% and ranged from 11% to 83%. First bull pregnancy rate of cows returning to estrus was 47% overall, with fall seasons having greater conception rates than spring (51.1% vs. 44.5%, P = 0.03). The ratio of bulls to total number of cows ranged from 1:8 to 1:68 with an average ratio of 1:28. The ratio of bulls to the number of open cows ranged from 1:2 to 1:39 with an average ratio of 1:14. There was no correlation between the bull:cow ratio and return to estrus pregnancy rate (r = -0.12), and there was no correlation between the number of open cows per bull and return to estrus conception rates (r = -0.17). Thus, higher bull:cow ratios (between 1:8 and 1:68) did not effect return to estrus pregnancy rate; producers may consider a lower number of bulls needed for natural service breeding post TAI, decreasing bull related costs and increasing the economic feasibility of adopting TAI protocols" @default.
