Automated electronic systems for the detection of oestrus and timing of AI in cattle.
For the majority of dairy herds where artificial insemination (AI) is practiced, the limiting factor toward obtaining efficient reproductive performance is the failure to detect oestrus in a timely and accurate manner. Periodic visual observation has been the dominant method used to identify cows in oestrus. New approaches are being developed to provide automated systems of detection of oestrus...
متن کاملGarlic as an Alternative Anthelmintic in Sheep
An increase in the anthelmintic resistance of parasites in small ruminants and a push towards non-chemical farming has lead researchers to search for alternative forms of anthelmintics. The efficacy of treating sheep by using natural garlic extract with respect to changes in weight, fecal egg counts (FEC), and packed cell volume (PCV) was investigated. Sheep were treated every 4 weeks for 8 wee...
