Reproduction

Reproductive efficiency is one of the most critical aspects of maintaining a successful and profitable beef cow/calf operation.  Heifers must reach puberty on time, cows need to breed back on time each year, proper calving intervals must be maintained, bulls should be tested for fertility, cows and heifers should calve with minimal difficulties.  These are a few of the basics that go into managing reproductive efficiency in beef operations.
