Abstract

Many dairy herds do not achieve their targets for reproductive performance. Despite many advances in technologies and management tools, producer attitudes towards, and frequency of implementation of these tools are not well documented. The objective of the present study was to survey current reproduction management practices in a representative sample of Canadian dairy farms.
