Evaluation of two formulations of progesterone in HeatSynch protocols in lactating Holstein cows in a pasture-based system

To evaluate two formulations of progesterone (inject­able: MAD-4, or intravaginal: DIV) included in the estrus synchronization protocol HeatSynch, 377 lactating Hol­stein cows, primiparous and multiparous, cycling and in anestrus, located in three dairies were used. The Protocol consisted of: Day 0: GnRH and administration of MAD-4 or DIV; Day 7: Prostaglandin (PG); Day 8: (BE) Estradiol Benzoate; Day 9: heat detection and AI; Day 10: Fixed Time Artificial Insemination (FTAI) to cows that did not show heat; Day 45: pregnancy diagnosis using ultrasound. Milk samples were obtained at Days - 7 and 0 for deter­mination ovarian activity according to levels of progester­one. First service pregnancy rates were: 20.5% in Farm 1, 30.8% in Farm 2, and 43.3% in Farm 3 (P<0.05). Fertility of treatment was not affected by progesterone formulation (DIV: 33.0%, MAD-4: 33.1%; P>0.01) cyclicity (Cycling: 32.3%, Anestrus: 35.3%; P>0.01) or parity (Primiparous: 36.1%, Multiparous: 30.2%; P>0.01). An interaction was found between farm and cyclicity (P<0.05). Pregnancy rate was lower in Primiparous of farm 1 than in farms 2 and 3 (12.9% vs. 49.8% and 33.3%; P<0.05). Bases on the lack of differences between treatments it was concluded that it is possible to replace intravaginal devices with injectable progesterone, as a presentation easier to apply and that does not generate wastes of hormonal pollutants.

Vacas para leche Progesterona Sincronización de celos Anestro posparto Dairy cows Progesterone Estrus synchronization Postpartum anestrus To evaluate two formulations of progesterone (inject­able: MAD-4, or intravaginal: DIV) included in the estrus synchronization protocol HeatSynch, 377 lactating Hol­stein cows, primiparous and multiparous, cycling and in anestrus, located in three dairies were used.

Para evaluar dos formulaciones de progesterona (inyec­table: MAD-4, o impregnada en un dispositivo intrava­ginal: DIV) incluidas en el protocolo de sincronización de celos HeatSynch, se utilizaron 377 vacas Holando en producción, primíparas y multíparas, ciclando y en anes­tro, ubicadas en tres tambos. El protocolo consistió en: Día 0: GnRH y administración de MAD-4 o DIV; Día 7: Prostaglandina (PG); Día 8: Benzoato de estradiol (BE); Día 9: detección de celo e IA; Día 10: Inseminación Ar­tificial a Tiempo Fijo (IATF) a vacas que no mostraron celo. Se realizó el diagnóstico de gestación mediante ul­trasonografía a 45 días del inicio de los tratamientos. Se extrajeron muestras de leche los Días -7 y 0 para deter­minación de actividad ovárica mediante la dosificación de progesterona. Los porcentajes de preñez a la primera inseminación fueron: 20,5% en el tambo 1, 30,8% en el tambo 2, y 43,3% en el tambo 3 (P<0,05). La fertilidad del tratamiento no fue afectada por la fuente de proges­terona (DIV: 33,0, MAD-4: 33,1%; P>0,01) la ciclicidad (Ciclando: 32,3%, Anestro: 35,3%; P>0,01) ni la paridad (Primíparas: 36,1%, Multíparas: 30,2%; P>0,01). Se en­contró una interacción entre tambo y ciclicidad (P<0,05). El porcentaje de preñez fue menor en las primíparas del tambo 1 que las de los tambos 2 y 3 (12,9% vs. 49,8% y 33,3%; P<0,05). No se observaron diferencias entre los tra­tamientos, concluyéndose que es posible sustituir los dis­positivos intravaginales por progesterona inyectable, como una presentación más fácil de aplicar y que no genera resi­duos hormonales contaminantes.
