Ceva Santé Animale organised the first ReprodAction Scientific Meeting with a renowned group of researchers on the field of cattle reproduction. The meeting was held on May 3rd and 4th 2012 at the Grand Hôtel de Bordeaux (France).

The main objective of the meeting was to create an environment for open exchange of ideas and science-based discussion among experts on a specific reproductive topic: “Defining, Preventing, and Treating AnoestrusState characterised by the absence of cyclicity and therefore the absence of heat. It is frequently observed after parturition for a longer or shorter period depending on the breed and physiological status. Condition in Cattle”.

Data from different countries and management conditions was presented by participating experts. The proposal was to have a broad understanding of the anoestrusState characterised by the absence of cyclicity and therefore the absence of heat. It is frequently observed after parturition for a longer or shorter period depending on the breed and physiological status. problem in different production systems.

Outline of the meeting:

Arrival on the Afternoon of the 2nd

Meeting starts at 8:30h AM on the 3rd

Morning: after welcome and introductions, each expert will be invited to do a short 10 min presentation about the topic, mostly focusing on status of anoestrusState characterised by the absence of cyclicity and therefore the absence of heat. It is frequently observed after parturition for a longer or shorter period depending on the breed and physiological status. condition in their country or area, main factors causing anoestrusState characterised by the absence of cyclicity and therefore the absence of heat. It is frequently observed after parturition for a longer or shorter period depending on the breed and physiological status., and possible management solutions.

Afternoon: two presentations of 50 min each will be performed to show most recent scientific advances on the physiological causes and management of anoestrusState characterised by the absence of cyclicity and therefore the absence of heat. It is frequently observed after parturition for a longer or shorter period depending on the breed and physiological status. in cattle.

A brainstorm section will be encouraged in order to find common ground on best veterinary practices when dealing with anoestrusState characterised by the absence of cyclicity and therefore the absence of heat. It is frequently observed after parturition for a longer or shorter period depending on the breed and physiological status. condition under applied field conditions.
