The article shows the importance of herd health and fertility to farm management and to producing higher milk yields, particularly at Thornton Grange Farm in Middlesborough, Cleveland, England. Farm owner Peter Chapman attributes the yield increase to reduction in calving index and a structured routine that includes checking of signs of endometritis two weeks post-calving and use of progesterone-releasing intravaginal device to start cow cycling. Chapman explores the benefits of an electronic heat detection system to better monitor condition of cows.
