Endometritis affects productivity and profits on every dairy farm. You know getting cows back in calf early improves fertility, increases days in milk and improves your income. Endometritis affects the cow’s ability to cycle and conceive, and may prevent around 10% of your herd from getting back in calf early. More empty cows and lost days in milk due to a prolonged calving resulting from reduced fertility as a result of endometritis costs every dairy farm. The good news – it can be simple for you to identify many of these cows. This calving season, identify and record cows that had a dead calf, an assisted calving, retained membranes, vaginal discharge or metabolic diseases such as milk fever. Your vet can easily treat these At Risk cows with an intrauterine antibiotic proven to significantly improve fertility, and give you the benefits of earlier calving, more days in milk, and more income. They can also check the herd to pick up any other dirty cows. Contact your vet for more information. Prescription Animal Remedy (P.A.R.)
