Determining pregnancy in cattle is an important management practice. The ability to determine pregnancy can allow you to make timely culling decisions and focus the resources of your operation on sound, reliable breeders. With experience, you can determine the fetal age which will allow you to predict expected calving dates and plan for the necessary labor at calving time. Pregnancy determination can also help you manage feeding to meet the high nutritional demands of gestation, calving, lactation, and rebreeding more effectively
