Keywords: Mycotoxins, mycotoxicoses, cows, obstetric and gynecological dispensation, infertility, sterility, artificial insemination, fertilization.

Abstract

The article presents the results of research on the spread of obstetric and gynecological pathology in cows due to mycotoxin contamination of feed, in particular, corn grains and corn silage. At the same time, the research was carried out in two cattle farms on cows of the Ukrainian black-spotted breed aged 3-7 years. The aim of the research was to establish the correlation of fodder damage with mycotoxins, in particular zearalenone and deoxynivalenol cutting of corn and corn silage on the reproductive capacity of cows. At the first stage, the content of mycotoxins in feed was determined. Subsequently, an obstetric and gynecological dispensation was carried out. At the same time, clinical research methods were used. It was established that zearalenone as a mycotoxin has an estrogen -like effect and contributes to the occurrence of ovarian pathology, in particular, ovarian pathology in farm No. 1 amounted to 26.0±1.47 heads, which was 21.55%, and in farm No. 2 – 22.75 ±0.85 heads (15.1%). At the same time, the largest share – 13 cases in farm No. 1 and 12 – in farm No. 2 were follicular cysts, frequent walking, asynchronous and incomplete sexual cycles. At the same time, pathology of the uterus under the influence of deoxynivalenol developed pathological processes in the organs of the reproductive system, in particular, chronic endometritis and accounted for 22% and 27% in the first and second households, respectively. At the same time, the course of the transit period in cows was complicated, which was characterized by the slowing down of involutional processes in the organs of the reproductive system, which reduced the fertilizing ability of cows. Thus, in cows of farm 1, the fertilization rate from the 1st insemination was 116±3.8 heads (14.5%), and from the second 108±3.39 (21%). In addition, gynecological pathology in the 1st farm ranged from 14.8% in 2021 to 16.05% in 2020, and in the 2nd farm, a similar indicator ranged from 17.12% in 2021 to 19.79% in 2020. year Also, multiple fruitless inseminations were diagnosed due to pathological processes in the organs of the reproductive system, which significantly reduced such an economic indicator as the yield of calves per 100 cows. This indicator was 65.5±1.7 6 t/100 cows in the first farm for 4 years, and 71.5±1.04 in the second. It has been established that contamination of cow feed with mycotoxins significantly reduces reproductive capacity and causes significant economic losses.
