Efficiency in dairy production depends on reproduction. One of dairy producers' biggest challenges today is overcoming poor reproductive performance. We know that dairy cow reproduction is affected by a variety of factors including nutrition, milk production, housing, and heat stress, to list a few. But what do we have in terms of processes, techniques, and technologies to improve dairy cows' reproduction? In today's episode I talk to Dr. Paul Fricke about dairy cows' reproduction and reproductive physiology, his background at the...
Efficiency in dairy production depends on reproduction. One of dairy producers' biggest challenges today is overcoming poor reproductive performance. We know that dairy cow reproduction is affected by a variety of factors including nutrition, milk production, housing, and heat stress, to list a few. But what do we have in terms of processes, techniques, and technologies to improve dairy cows' reproduction? In today's episode I talk to Dr. Paul Fricke about dairy cows' reproduction and reproductive physiology, his background at the producer level, an efficient application of technology, synchronization programs, recommendations, as well as publications and research from the scientific community.
"We've had a reproduction revolution with the high fertility cycle, with fertility programs in dairy cows." - Dr. Paul M. Fricke

Dr. Paul M. Fricke received his B.S. degree in Animal Science from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Then he completed an M.S. degree and a Ph.D. in Reproductive Physiology from the Department of Animal Sciences at North Dakota State University in Fargo, North Dakota. After that, Dr. Fricke accepted a position as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Dairy Science and the Department of Animal Health and Biomedical Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Now he holds the position of Professor of Dairy Science and Extension Specialist in Dairy Cattle Reproduction in the Department of Animal & Dairy Sciences, University of Wisconsin โ Madison. His activities include 70% Extension and 30% research appointments in dairy cattle reproduction. Dr. Fricke's extension program aims to improve dairy cattle's reproductive efficiency by applying knowledge gained through scientific research to develop practical management strategies, assess new reproductive technologies, and disseminate that information throughout Wisconsin, the United States, and the world.
