Webinar to Provide Information on Artificial Insemination

Jan 27, 2016 | 2:42 PM

The Beef Cattle Research Council is hosting a webinar on Thursday on Artificial Insemination (AI).

Pregnancy rates using AI can be similar to those using natural service, and depending on the protocol used, it can be more economical as well.

There are two guest speakers lined up who will help you understanding if AI is a smart choice for your operation.

The speakers are Kathy Larson, a Research Economist at Western Beef Development Centre, and Dr. Colin Palmer, Associate Professor at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine.

They will go over some of the basics of AI, heat detection, and heat synchronization.

The hour long webinar is free of charge and will begin at 7pm. If you aren’t available but are still interested, the recording will be posted online at a later date.
