Re: Fishmeg
Used it a couple of years ago with a small lift in yields but no significant change in fertility. I have heard of good results when used on donor cows, to improve quality & quanity of eggs, and pregnancy rates in receptiants. Very expensive, a couple of ton would go a long way to ofset the price of a AI-24 heat-time. I have a heat-time and no plans to buy fishmeg.
