Researchers at the University of Missouri recently evaluated a new protocol for synchronization of estrus among postpartum beef cows. This protocol was found to be highly effective both for cows receiving embryo transfer (ET) and cows receiving fixed-time artificial insemination (AI). Extensive field trials with the 7 & 7 Synch observed improvements in the proportion of cows expressing estrus after synchronization and in the proportion of cows becoming pregnant to ET or to AI.
