Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

Replacement gilts frequently do not fit smoothly into existing breeding and farrowing schedules because time of estrus cannot be predicted. Being able to program replacement gilts into a breeding herd would improve management, so we investigated the effectiveness of a synthetic progestogen, allyl trenbolone , to control estrus in gilts. Allyl trenbolone is not presently available to swine producers.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 8, 1979
