AI Tips - Get More Cows In Calf

Your qualified CRV Ambreed AI Technician is equipped with skills to assist clients in getting the best conception rates. Here’s what you can do to make artificial insemination a success.

• Ensure all staff are competent in identifying bulling cows

• Store strong chemicals away from the working area (i.e xy12, chloride or lime)

• Mating docket book to be filled out by the farmer prior to the ai technician’s arrival

• Provide a clean, sheltered area away from sunlight and rain for the technician to load pistolettes, especially if working in open cattle yards



• No smoking around loading area, or the technician

• Farm personnel must be in attendence while AI technician is working (an osh requirement)

• AI tank should be protected from shed cleaning procedures and kept dry and cool

• Stand cows quietly while waiting for your Technician. Refrain from bringing cows into the shed with motorbikes or dog as this causes cows to become stressed and will result in lower conception rates

• After AI, allow your cows to make their way from the shed at their own pace, back to the paddock

• Tail paint or place estrotects after your AI technician has visited

• Please supply a bucket of warm water and brush to allow the technician to clean up.
This reduces the chances of spreading disease.
