Estrus Synchronization in Crossbred Dairy Cows under Field Conditions

چکیده
A study was conducted to assess the effect of estrus synchronization technique on fertility and estrus induction response in crossbred cows under field conditions. Totally 30 infertile cows (anoestrous 13 and repeat breeder 17) were selected and divided randomly into two groups having 15 cows each. Estrus synchronization protocol (Triu-B) was adopted in Group I and Group II cows were kept as control. All the cows (100%) under Triu-B protocol were exhibited estrus between 48 and 72 hours following PG injection on day 7. Artificial insemination was carried out up to 3 subsequent estrus cycles in cows which were exhibited spontaneous or induced estrus. Number of inseminations, service period and pregnancy data were recorded and analysed statistically. In group I, mean number of service per conception was 1.42 whereas in group II was 2.43. The mean service period in days were differs significantly (P≤0.01) between treatment (129.42±4.73) and control (158.71±8.89) group. The higher conception rate (80 %) was obtained in treated group while in control group was 46.66 %. The results revealed that estrus synchronization protocol could be used effectively to augment reproductive performance in crossbred dairy cattle under field conditions.

This study examined the use of PGF(2α) and estradiol benzoate (EB) either with or without GnRH to synchronize estrus in dairy cows for timed artificial insemination (TAI) under field conditions. First, Holstein dairy cows with a corpus luteum (CL) received 500 μg cloprostenol and were then randomly allocated to three groups: no further treatment (control, n=236); treatment with 1 mg EB 56 h aft...

Overall, 531 dairy cows were inseminated with the aim to study their reproductive performance following administration of GnRH analogue on different days of estrous cycle with different doses. These cows were divided into six treatment and one control group. Depending upon different treatment groups, Buserelin acetate was injected at a dose of 10.5 µg or 21.0 µg on different days (0, 5 or 12) o...

The objectives of this study were to determine estrus behavior, interval to estrus, duration of estrus and time of ovulation of Boran, and Boran × Holstein Friesian (HF) breeds. A total of 113 cows and heifers from the two breeds were synchronized with two estrus synchronization protocols: 1) estradiol benzoate (EB) + controlled internal drug release (CIDR) + prostaglandin (PGF2α); and 2) gonad...
