Effect of the Technological Status of Small Cow-Calf Farm Producers on the Induction to Resumption of Ovarian Activity of Dual-Purpose Cattle Raised under Topical Conditions

“…Finally, in order to induce the resumption of the ovarian activity, it is necessary to include a therapy that involves a progestogen compound either alone or with the application of prostaglandin F2α or the administration of estradiol benzoate. These regimes have resulted in highly variable rates in the efficacy to induce the resumption of the ovarian activity postpartum [7] [12]. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of the technological level in small-scale dual-purpose cow-calf operations on the resumption of the ovarian activity post-partum of Bos indicus cows with an induction program using a CIDR with either the administration of estradiol benzoate or alone.…”
