Abstract: Cow-calf producers are expanding herds in response to high cattle prices and better forage conditions across Texas. Reproductive management practices such as pregnancy testing, bull breeding soundness exams (BSE), and vaccinations for reproductive diseases are important practices that can increase the number of live calves born and weaned, and profits.
