Abstract

This study focuses on technical support for the beef cattle production system, with an emphasis on zootechnical and reproductive evaluation. The main breeds used in Brahman beef cattle farming were identified and classified, considering their phenotypic characteristics and adaptability to the production system. In the reproductive component, early pregnancy diagnosis techniques were applied, using rectal palpation and ultrasound, allowing embryos and fetuses to be detected at early stages. Likewise, the management of bovine neonates was addressed, highlighting essential practices such as the immediate administration of colostrum and the disinfection of the umbilical cord, with the aim of optimizing the birth rate and reducing perinatal mortality rates. Subsequently, morphological measurements such as height and live weight were used to analyze the physical and reproductive development of the animals, providing relevant data for technical and health decisions in the production unit.
