In the heart of China's Ningxia region, where cattle farming is a cornerstone of the local economy, precision and care in herd management are critical. In early 2025, Ningxia Yulong Cattle Farm, known for its commitment to high-quality beef production, introduced the BXL-V60 Veterinary ultrasound Instrument into its veterinary practices. This decision marked a transformative step in enhancing the farm's reproductive efficiency, overall herd health, and early disease detection capabilities.

Challenges Before Implementation

Before adopting the BXL-V60, Yulong Cattle Farm faced several significant challenges. Pregnancy checks were largely performed manually, relying on palpation methods that were time-consuming, physically demanding for the veterinarians, and sometimes inaccurate, especially in early gestation stages. Moreover, early detection of uterine infections and reproductive issues was limited, leading to delayed treatments and sometimes resulting in economic losses due to missed breeding cycles or compromised calf health.

Farm manager Mr. Zhao explained, "Our traditional methods made it difficult to detect pregnancy at an early stage. We often had to wait until visible signs appeared, which could be too late for effective interventions."

Choosing the BXL-V60

In search of a more reliable, efficient, and user-friendly solution, Yulong Cattle Farm conducted thorough research into veterinary imaging technology. The BXL-V60 stood out due to its reputation for durability, ease of use, and exceptional image clarity. The lightweight, portable design was particularly attractive for a farm where veterinarians often have to move between different herds across wide pastures.

After a brief training session provided by BXL’s technical team, the veterinarians quickly became proficient with the device. The BXL-V60’s intuitive touchscreen interface, customizable imaging settings, and wireless connectivity for data storage and sharing further solidified it as the ideal choice.

Implementation and Training

The transition to using the BXL-V60 was smoother than expected. Within the first week, veterinarians were confidently conducting ultrasound exams for pregnancy detection, fetal health assessment, and uterine health monitoring. Thanks to its high-frequency linear probe, the BXL-V60 could detect pregnancies as early as 28 days post-insemination — a significant improvement over manual methods.

Additionally, the ultrasound device’s real-time imaging capabilities allowed for immediate diagnosis of reproductive issues such as cystic ovaries, endometritis, and abnormal fetal development. Early intervention became possible, minimizing the impact on breeding schedules and calf survival rates.

Results Achieved

Since integrating the BXL-V60 into their routine veterinary practices, Yulong Cattle Farm has experienced remarkable improvements:

• Pregnancy Detection Accuracy: Pregnancy confirmation accuracy improved from an estimated 85% with manual palpation to over 97% with ultrasound.

• Early Diagnosis of Reproductive Issues: Uterine infections and reproductive tract abnormalities are now diagnosed earlier, allowing treatments to start promptly, which has increased breeding efficiency by 15%.

• Reduction in Labor and Time: Ultrasound examinations take less than half the time of manual checks, reducing labor costs and minimizing stress on the animals.

• Improved Calving Outcomes: Early monitoring of fetal development has contributed to a 10% decrease in calf mortality.

Veterinarian Dr. Li shared, "The BXL-V60 has revolutionized our workflow. We can now diagnose and make informed decisions almost instantly, which has improved animal welfare and our bottom line."

Additional Benefits

Beyond reproductive management, the BXL-V60 has also been used for general health assessments. Liver, kidney, and lung scans have become part of routine checkups, helping to identify systemic diseases early. The device’s portability allows veterinarians to perform scans directly in the field, saving valuable time and reducing the stress associated with transporting animals to clinics.

Moreover, the wireless data transfer system enables seamless uploading of images to the farm's digital records. This innovation supports more accurate and detailed health histories for each animal, which has been a valuable asset for herd management and future breeding decisions.

Conclusion

The BXL-V60 veterinary ultrasound instrument has proven to be a game-changer for Ningxia Yulong Cattle Farm. With improved diagnostic capabilities, faster workflows, and better outcomes for both cows and calves, the farm has strengthened its competitive edge in a challenging agricultural market.

As Mr. Zhao summed up, "Investing in the BXL-V60 wasn't just about buying a machine — it was about investing in the future of our farm. The results speak for themselves."

Yulong Cattle Farm’s success story highlights how innovative veterinary technologies like the BXL-V60 are not only improving animal health but also enhancing the economic sustainability of modern cattle farming operations.
