Nowadays most abortions among cows occur within the first three weeks after
insemination. Embryo death is the main reason why dairy cows cannot conceive at the
desired time intervals. Three groups of cows were investigated in the «Promin» farm of
Mykolaiv region. The Double OvSync synchronization scheme was used for cows and the non
steroidal anti-inflammatory drug Ketoprofen was used in one of the groups for the prevention
of embryonic mortality on the 11th day after fertilization (n=25). For comparison, the other
group was injected with the same amount of saline (n=25). No drugs were administered to
the control group (n=25). It was Determined that in Ketoprofen group there was an increase
in the percentage of fertilization, a decrease in the insemination index and the calving there
was an increase in the percentage of fertilization, a decrease in the insemination index and
the calving interval.
