The Argentine veterinarian has designed a cheap and simple device that can completely prevent pregnant cattle from reaching cattle slaughterhouses on the Pampas. Enrique Turin, a professor at Northwestern University of Buenos Aires, designs and produces the world's first intrauterine device for cattle.
He has invented patents and he is in the local and European Union. The IUD is specifically designed for the birth of five to seven calves and fattened dairy cows. Turin, 47, began experimenting with a homemade cow Uterus IUD 20 years ago. Today, he has a small factory next to his home built Pergamino - 245 km (152 miles) north of Buenos Aires, Argentina, animal husbandry and agricultural center, generating $ 3.00 in equipment.
Cheap and simple projects have succeeded: About 2.5 million Uterine IUDs have been exported to Brazil's world beef production giants and Spain.
Spanish officials have even approved one of the models used for the sow Turin, especially because of the recent ban on boars due to animal welfare concerns. Cows need an empty uterus to reach the slaughterhouse, but "this is not the case in Argentina," Turin said. "There is a high proportion of people who have completed their breeding cycle and have reached the slaughterhouse already pregnant."
After the slaughter of the cows, 5% of pregnancy is affected, which is about 10,000 heads of livestock a year in Argentina, a world-class beef-producing country. The problem is not moral because it is lost because 10 kilograms (22 pounds), each animal’s flesh can feed the fat of the beef, not the fetus. With IUDs "We estimate that more than five percent of beef will be per animal" and consider the number of animals involved. In the present invention, the Argentine government took special interest and this year agreed to finance the distribution of 440,000 cattle IUDs with small and medium sized cattle ranchers and deputy animal husbandry minister Alejandro Loti. Say. About 20,000 ranchers, 200 cattle, will benefit from the plan, Lottie told AFP.
There are currently 580,000 heads of cattle in Argentina, according to government figures. If widely used, this will revolutionize the IUD's livestock husbandry on the Pampas, where the bulls and cows are free to work together. Some ranchers switch, not as much as soybeans, Argentina's largest export product today.
Marcos Franco, an expert in animal obstetrics and behavior at the University of El Salvador, has already seen what impressed him. "I think this is a truly revolutionary thing," Franco told AFP. He believes that equipment as a humane anti-pregnancy device is actually "harmless."
