Episode 10 - Artificial insemination — maximise your conception rate

The BreedCast - innovative dairy breeding in your ears

As many other dairy farmers, you may have experienced mixed results with artificial insemination of your cows. A successful pregnancy depends on a number of variables, so what can you do to get the best possible results?

We've invited an insemination expert and a vet to share their best tips — before, during and after an insemination. Learn about the cow, the heat, the environment, the semen, the equipment and the timing.

Guests:
Niels Haulrik Kristiansen, Head of Training Division for Artificial Insemination Technicians, VikingDanmark

Kaj Abrahamsen, Chief Veterinarian, VikingGenetics. Also a member of RepVet, an advisor to the European Union.
