REPRODUCTION
More than a pregnancy rate.
The story behind it.
Bring breeding records, pregnancy checks and calvings together. Then look at timing, opportunity and the groups behind your results.
Understand the timing.
Explore how days to conception affect the way reproduction performance is measured.
Compare fairly.
Adjust comparisons for differences in lactation and time since the waiting period.
Reproduction, WITH A BETTER CLOCK
[ A FAIRER COMPARISON ]The days matter.
So does the comparison.
Pregnancy accumulation relates pregnancies to the time cows were eligible. Adjusted reproduction puts months onto a comparable mix of time since the waiting period and lactation, helping you compare periods with different groups of cows.
Pregnancy accumulation21-day risk from pregnancies and eligible cow-days.
Adjusted reproductionA comparison adjusted for the herd’s mix of eligibility days and lactations.
Move the slider to explore a worked pregnancy accumulation example from Metrix’s model explanation. The curve and step line answer different questions; the example makes that distinction visible.
Why one extra day changes the pictureWorked model illustration
Pregnancy accumulation61.5%
Fixed 21-day cycle rate50.0%
Worked example: 100 eligible cows, each conceiving once on the chosen day. This is a model explanation, not a farm result.
THE MODEL, APPLIED TO HERD RECORDS
Compare the months.
Keep the cow mix in perspective.
Compare adjusted reproduction by month alongside a service timing score. The bars show adjusted pregnancy risk; the line uses its own scale on the right.
