Two Basic Counteractive Strategies
1) Stimulate a more rapid return to estrus to avoid the anestrus and extended WEI
- increase lactation feed intake
- split weaning
- gonadotropin treatment (PG 600®)
2) Delay the return to estrus (or mating) to avoid the reduced CR and SLS
- skip-a-heat breeding
- chronic progestagen treatment (Regu-Mate®)
- inducing a lactational ovulation (experimental)
