Electrical Conductivity of Reproductive Tissue for Detection of Estrus in Dairy Cows

Abstract

dc:description

Inefficient detection of estrus is the principal cause of delayed conception and concomitant lengthened calving intervals. Consequently, interest is generated in devising new methods of detecting estrus. Electrical conductivity of reproductive tissue can be a potential method of doing so.
