Embryo transfer
Bovine embryo transfer (ET) is an assisted reproductive technology that allows genetically superior donor cows to produce multiple offspring by transferring embryos into recipient cows, enhancing herd genetics and prodEmbryo transfer in cattle is a reproductive technique where embryos are collected from a genetically superior donor cow and placed into recipient cows that carry the pregnancies to term. It allows one high-value cow to produce far more offspring per year than she could through natural breeding, since the recipient cows do the work of pregnancy and calving. The process involves hormone treatments, embryo collection (called flushing), laboratory evaluation, and nonsurgical placement into synchronized recipients. Pregnancy rates for fresh embryos typically fall between 55% and 61%.uctivity.
Artificial Insemination
Artificial insemination (AI) in cows works by thawing frozen semen (typically at 35–37°C for 30–45 seconds) and depositing it into the cow’s uterine body 12–24 hours after standing estrus using a recto‑vaginal technique performed by a trained technician.
natural Service
Natural service (also called live cover) is the most common breeding method in the U.S. beef industry, where fertile bulls mate naturally with cows or heifers during their estrus (heat) cycles.
