Description

The approach to neurological and ophthalmic diseases in ruminants, with all the specific developments that field work brings with it, in a course focused on real practice"

##IMAGE##

There are several factors that can be used to increase reproductive efficiency, among them are feeding and management, but currently the control and manipulation of reproduction at all stages of the animal's life is the basis for obtaining greater efficiency at a biological and economic level in both bovine species and small ruminants. Likewise, nowadays, the knowledge of new reproductive biotechnologies (seminal preservation, embryo production, embryo transfer, etc.) and their application in cattle breeding has allowed a qualitative leap in ruminant reproduction.

As well as the organization, having a reproduction system implies having a herd free of pathologies. For this purpose, it is vital to know the physiology of the animals in order to determine when the physiological to pathological stage is reached, and therefore to be able to establish a diagnosis as soon as possible and an adequate subsequent treatment. 

Keeping the organs involved in the reproductive system (ovaries, genital tract, breast) healthy with correct reproductive management, we will be able to maintain the reproductive indexes of the farm, keeping the production at the required levels.

At the end of the program, the veterinary professionals will have developed specialized knowledge in reproduction: methods of control of both the cycle and parturition, and the most advanced reproductive biotechnologies. They will also be able to identify those pathological processes related to reproduction, applying the appropriate diagnostic techniques that will allow them to establish the optimal treatment.
