Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the body condition score (BCS) on the pregnancy rate of female cattle submitted to TAI. This was a cross-sectional, descriptive and quantitative study, in which data collection were carried out on bovine reproduction. A population of 600 Nellore females was used, submitted to artificial insemination at a fixed time, submitted to the same FTAI protocol and classified according to the body condition score (BCS) being: low (with index less than 2.5), medium (between 2.6 and 3.0) and high (above 3.1). After data collection, they were organized in excel spreadsheets, in addition to using the graphs available in the tool to treat the information. Through the results obtained with this work, it is concluded that body condition exerts a significant influence on the percentage of pregnancies of animals submitted to the Fixed Time Artificial Insemination (FTAI) program.
