Good afternoon.
Excuse me, but I need some advice.
I have had a cow for 12 years, the last 4 years it has been mating poorly. The previous brood was after the 2 ovulation scheme (estrophan and surfacon). This year, we did not achieve the result and did not inseminate. We covered her with an AI, mated with the bull 4 times, to no avail. A rectal veterinarian came, said “ovarian cyst”, suppressed the cyst, injected a vitamin and antibiotic, calmed her down, but fertilization did not occur after mating. Maybe our cow needs another treatment? Thank you

Obesity in cows is a serious risk factor for reproduction, as it disrupts hormonal balance and can lead to reduced sexual activity and fertilization problems. Excessive fat deposition also complicates calving and increases the risk of postpartum complications.
Proper post-weaning housing conditions are key to calves' health and growth. A clean, dry room with adequate ventilation and quality feed helps to reduce stress, strengthen immunity and ensure rapid development of young animals.
Dysfunctions of the reproductive system in cows require special attention, as they directly affect herd productivity and economic performance. Timely diagnosis and correction of such problems help prevent losses and ensure stable reproduction.
The requirements for keeping dairy cows include providing comfortable conditions, cleanliness and quality feeding. Proper housing organization contributes to high milk production and animal health.
Veterinarian Oleksii Msnyk is preparing to conduct an ultrasound examination of the herd to assess the state of the animals' reproductive system. Such diagnostics allows us to identify problems in a timely manner and increase the efficiency of reproduction.
Oleksandr Mysnyk, the chief veterinarian of Ukrainian Farms LLC, has been working since the day he started.
The goal of a veterinarian on a farm is to ensure the health and productivity of animals through the prevention and timely treatment of diseases. His work is aimed at improving production efficiency and livestock welfare.
Alexander Mirko presents a new seminar on “Reproduction and artificial insemination.”
The main points for a successful artificial insemination process are explained. Topics such as:
-Factors that affect fertilization
-Purpose of the playback
-Steps to successful artificial insemination
-The main causes of infertility
-Artificial insemination technology, etc.
We look forward to your comments and questions!

We have an important question. Answer) - Is there a need to change the feeding regime for cattle in the heat?
Definitely yes. Fresh, clean, and cool water should be available at all times, and it should be topped up more often in the heat of the day. Healthy calves can drink up to 12 liters of water per day, while sick calves can drink up to 20 liters. Add electrolytes (sodium, potassium, sweetener) to prevent dehydration. Replace feed more often, increase the number of milk feedings, and you can reduce fat in milk replacers without reducing protein. If calves are consuming less feed before weaning, postpone weaning until appetite is restored.
And what to do if you suspect that the calf has already overheated, how to help?
