the study was undertaken to compare the efficacy of an estradiol-17β + cidr based protocol with the conventional ovsynch + cidr based protocol for synchrony of wave emergence and ovulation in murrah buffalos. in group i (n=25), on day 0 (beginning of experiment), buffaloes were administered a cidr device (1.38 g p4) and concurrently received 1.5 mg e-17β. on day 9, the cidr was removed and a pr...

forty ewes (3-6 years of age, average weight 41.2 kg)were randomly chosen from the flock of the sheep experiment station of tripoli university. ewes were divided into two groups, control group (c) received untreated barley straw and treatment group (t) received barley straw treated with 10% urea solution applied as 40% (v/w). barley straw was sprayed with molasses when fed to animals. both grou...

the objective of the present study was to compare the impact of ovsynch and progesterone-based ovulation synchronization protocol on ovarian response and conception in buffalo (n=19) exhibiting subestrus during low-breeding season (maximum ambient temperatures and relative humidity ranging from 36-45°c and 30-80%, respectively). group i buffalo (n=10) were administered ovsynch protocol (d 0 and...

An analysis of dairy herd records to determine the cause of low reproductive efficiency usually leads to the conclusion that problems are centered in one of the following areas: breeding policy (intentionally waiting too long after calving for first service), estrous detection efficiency (missed heats), or conception rate. The challenge is to identify the factors responsible for the problem. On...

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 reproductive performance of a dairy herd has a significant effect on the profitability of that herd. common measures of reproductive performance are days to first service, days to conception, calving interval, services per conception, conception rate, estrus detection rate, and pregnancy rate. most cow operations would benefit economically by reducing the number of operational days, decreas...
