What is the reproductive efficiency ratio in cows?

There really is no such thing as "reproductive efficiency ratio" for cows. A cow's reproductive efficiency is not dependent on one particular ratio, but rather several factors such as environment, genetics, nutrition, age, body condition and management.There is, however, another way to measure reproductive performance (or possibly efficiency) in a cow herd that a number of producers know and use. GOLD indicators is such a tool that is frequently used. GOLD stands for Growth in terms of weaning weight (calves should be ~45% of their dam's weight at weaning), Opens (a cow herd should have maximum of 4% open rate of cows), Length of calving season (should have a 63-day calving season or less), and Death loss of calves (should have less than 4% death loss in calves post-partum and abortion).


What are twelve cows called?

Why is it more efficient when cows are kept in sheds?

It really isn't, if you stop and think about it. It takes more fuel, labour, feed and fertilizer to grow, harvest, store and bring feed to cattle that are kept indoors than it does to just let the cows do the work themselves. Sure it takes less land to feed X number of cows in a feedlot versus grazing the same number of cows in a pasture environment as far as efficiency in land use is concerned, but it's not efficient as far as labour, fuel, feed and fertilizer costs are concerned. It's also inefficient when you have to use equipment (fuel and labour) to clean out the manure that has accumulated in the sheds every year. But to answer your question, it's because you can hold a larger number of animals on a smaller piece of land and feed them higher-quality feeds in an intensive CAFO operation than you can with a pasture/grass-fed operation.
