health extension project. The objective was to evaluate additional effects on fertility&#13;
parameters in the first two project years (y1, y2) compared to the year before (y0). Of&#13;
1494 lactations 251 diagnoses associated to reproduction and obstetrics were performed&#13;
(17 per 100 Lactations). Ovary disorders (29%), retentio secundinarum (25%)&#13;
and metritis (20%) were the most common items. Ovary disorders could be treated by&#13;
homeopathy as successful as by hormones. Uterine disorders (ret sec., metritis) were&#13;
followed by significantly better fertility parameters (days to first insemination 60 vs. 84&#13;
days, calving conception interval 68 vs. 118 days) after homeopathic treatment compared&#13;
to antibiosis. Fertility parameters have been significantly enhanced from y0 to&#13;
y2. Homeopathic treatment proportion increased from 4% to approx. 30%. This indicates&#13;
that an udder health programme can lead to improved fertility parameters and&#13;
therapy concept conversion as well.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc"> Dairy cattle</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc"> Health and welfare</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2009</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Conference paper, poster, etc. </mods:genre></mods:mods>
