[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1550959, member: 24565"] Most AI and natural breeding seasons in managed herds are less than a year-long effort. There is a reduced labor issue in that decision, a more uniform calf crop, groups of contemporaries are easier to manage and bring to their levels of production, infertile cattle can easily be identified and culled and if we choose a "breeding season" we can pick the times of the year which are seasonally best for us or raise our rate of success based on temperatures, feed and environment. To me, that is a big problem in what is being presented as high tech but missing out on easier management in basic steps. Just an observation after reading. [/QUOTE]
