Conclusion<br />

Synchronizing replacement beef heifers with<br />

the CIDR Select protocol resulted in:<br />

• Significantly higher FTAI pregnancy rates<br />

(P = 0.02)<br />

• Reduced variance associated with the<br />

interval from FTAI to subsequent return to<br />

estrus (P < 0.05)<br />
