Factores del animal y el manejo predestete que afectan la edad al primer parto en hatos de lechería especializada de Costa Rica

Abstract: La edad al primer parto (EPP) corresponde a uno de los parámetros más importantes para medir la eficiencia productiva de los bovinos, y a su vez, influye en el rendimiento reproductivo y la composición de la leche. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar el efecto de los factores del animal y del ambiente, modificables y no modificables, desde el nacimiento hasta el destete sobre la edad al primer parto (EPP) en hatos lecheros especializados de Costa Rica. Se realizó un estudio cohorte retrospectivo para cu… Show more

“…For tropical regions, AFC averages are frequently close to 35 months [27]. These high values have been mainly associated with less favorable weather conditions, higher incidence of disease, pasture-based rearing systems, and the lack of high quality nutritional products in general [28].…”

“…The trend to a decrease in the early years of follow-up suggests a contribution of the MIS to a better reproductive control of the herd, allowing animals to not remain "open" for long periods. A local study based only on recent data suggested that AFC had lowered down to 30.1 and 28.4 months for Holstein and Jersey cows, respectively [28], which means that AFC can also approach optimum values under tropical conditions.…”
