Beef Reproduction Task Force
The ARSBC program …
The pattern for the Applied Reproductive Strategies in Beef Cattle program was developed under the direction of the Beef Cattle Reproduction Task Force. The first workshop was conducted in Manhattan, Kan., in 2002. Nine workshops have been hosted at locations across the country.
The purpose of the program is twofold — (1) to improve the understanding of the physiological processes of the estrous cycle, the procedures available to synchronize estrus and ovulation, and the proper application of these systems and (2) to improve the understanding of methods to assess male fertility and how it affects the success of artificial insemination programs.
