New Pregnancy Test for Dairy Cows

Milk Test Technology Can Now Confirm Pregnancy in Dairy Cows

By , Farms.com

CanWest DHI has come up with a new pregnancy test for dairy cows.

Dairy farmers now have the option of checking pregnancy through milk samples, which is done through DHI’s regular service options. The technology is apparently very similar to that which is used in blood pregnancy tests, but will now be easily done through milk tests instead.

The new technology is being called ReCheck 60. The number 60 represents that the test is best used for 60 plus days in gestation.

The new way of testing pregnancy serves as a great tool for pregnancy reconfirmation. This technology will be made available to dairy farmers in January 2013.

Video: Iran War = “Trend is Your Friend” Short-Term BUT……


Historically wars like the 2026 Iran war are bullish hard assets like grains, metals and energy! The funds are spooked and do not want to be short, but do they price in the news over time, similar to the Ukraine/Russian war that started on Feb. 24, 2022? A closure of the Strait of Hormuz is the key to the surge in crude oil, natural gas prices and fertilizer prices.  Grains are breaking out to new contract highs as a hedge against inflation.
