Pro-M8 achieves significantly higher conception rates and 6-week-in-calf rates when compared to a Prosynch programme.
When cows fail to undergo luteolysis following a PG injection as part of a Prosynch programme, it results in elevated concentrations of progesterone at the time of the final GnRH injection. This reduces the probability of ovulation and conception.
Studies completed internationally have reported this rate to be between 10-27% following a single PG injection.
Pro-M8 adds a repeat injection of PGF2α (Ovuprost) which is given on day 8 of the Prosynch protocol, which increases conception rate when compared to a single day 7 PGF2α (Ovuprost) injection.
Pro-M8 achieved 96% success in complete luteolysis
Pro-M8 achieved relative improvements in:
- 1st service conception rate by 10.2%
- 3-week in-calf rate by 8.5%
- 6-week in-calf rate by 5.8%
