- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigates postpartum ovarian follicular dynamics in Holstein cows that calved between November 2010 and July 2011. The study monitored the ovarian follicular dynamics using an ultrasound system and follicular wave after parturition. Result suggests that postpartum cows with shortage on energy tend to need a long period until the first ovulation and that the ovarian function's resumption tends to be early in cows with high number of small follicles.
