	abstract = {Progesterone releasing devices are used to induce and  synchronise oestrus in ewes and to provide supplementary progesterone  post-mating to increase embryo survival. Because of its physical  characteristics the Type-G CIDR device can be washed and re-used.   Two trials each involving 1200 ewes were conducted. CIDR devices  previously used for 14 days were evaluated in comparison to unused  devices for their efficacy in; (1) induction and synchronisation of  oestrus (50 ewes were treated with either new or used devices each month  of the year with 400 I.U. PMSG given at device removal and the onset of  oestrus and pregnancy monitored) or (ii) treatment post-mating (new,  used or no devices were reinstated into groups of 33 ewes on Day 6 after  a synchronised mating each month of the year. Pregnancy and lambing  rates were monitored). Fewer ewes exhibited oestrus after treatment  with the used CIDR devices and fewer became pregnant in Trial 1. There  was no effect of post-mating treatment on pregnancy rate in Trial 2 but  such treatment reduced the proportion of ewes have multiple births.  Monthly variations in response were seen in both trials.  },
