Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Agriculture University, Palampur

Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya (renamed as Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya in June, 2001) was established on 1st November, 1978.The College of Agriculture (established in May, 1966) formed the nucleus of the new farm University. It is ICAR accredited and ISO 9001:2015 certified institution. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has ranked this University at eleventh place among all farm universities of the country. The University has been given the mandate for making provision for imparting education in agriculture and other allied branches of learning, furthering the advancement of learning and prosecution of research and undertaking extension of such sciences, especially to the rural people of Himachal Pradesh. Over the years, this University has contributed significantly in transforming the farm scenario of Himachal Pradesh. It has developed human resources, varieties and technologies and transferred these to farming community enabling the State to receive the “Krishikarman award” of Govt. of India four times in row for food grain production among small states of the country. Today, the State has earned its name for hill agricultural diversification and the farming community has imposed its faith in the University.

    INDUCTION OF PARTURITION IN THE DAIRY ANIMALS – A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF VARIOUS TREATMENTS PROTOCOLS
    (CSKHPKV, Palampur, 15-06-18) Thakur, Anupama; Singh, Madhumeet
    This study was conducted in two parts. First part consisted of survey conducted through questionnaire to analyse the scenario regarding induction of parturition in bovines of Himachal Pradesh and second was a clinical study to record the clinical efficacy of four different parturition induction treatment protocols in advance pregnant cows. Overall, 24 pregnant cows (6 in each treatment protocols) suffering from cervico-vaginal prolapse and/or recumbency were induced calving using these protocols. These included 1; Dexamethasone, 2; PGF2α, 3; Dexamethasone + PGF2α in combination and 4; Dexamethasone + PGF2α + Valethamate Bromide + Diethylstilbestrol combination. Clinical findings were recorded which included response time from induction to parturition, postpartum reproductive parameters viz peak milk yield and first postpartum estrus and clinical complications like dystocia, retention of placenta post-induction. Blood samples were collected from cows at three stages viz; prior to induction treatment, just immediately after calving and 12 hrs post-calving and were analysed for hormonal and hematological profile. Questionnaire analysis revealed that Dexamethasone, PGF2α and Valethamate Bromide combination was the most preferred treatment followed with combination of Dexamethasone and PGF2α by veterinarians, whereas, majority of veterinary pharmacists used later combination in field veterinary institutions. Use of Oxytocin in combinations was also reported by some pharmacists. In present clinical study, although there was no difference in time taken from treatment to calving between different protocols (p>0.05), administration of Dexamethasone alone appeared comparatively the best. Post-partum complications were recorded in all the protocols used in this study. No difference was found in post-partum parameters between present induced and previous normal calving. Similarly there was no difference in hormonal or haematological profile between different protocols, however, cortisol levels decreased (P>0.05) 12 hrs post-calving when Dexamethasone alone was used for parturition induction.

    STRATEGIC MINERAL SUPPLEMENTATION STUDIES ON THE PERFORMANCE OF HEIFERS
    (CSKHPKV, Palampur, 2009-08) S. Bais, Isha; Sharma, K. B.
    Unlike other nutrients, mineral elements can not be synthesized by living organisms. Therefore, a minimum level of mineral intake is necessary to fulfill the basic needs of the animals. Thus, investigations were conducted on strategic mineral supplementation in growing heifers to ensure better performance of heifers in their productive life. The heifers of different stages of development were selected and the effect of mineral supplementation on haematological, biochemical, growth and cyclicity was observed. The plasma as well as feed, fodder and water samples were analyzed for mineral status and the mineral mixture was formulated according to the prevalence of mineral deficiency and the animals were supplemented with mineral mixture for three months. Haematological and biochemical parameters varied within the normal range during the supplementation period. Overall significant (p<0.05) reduction in deficiency of calcium, sodium, potassium and copper was upto 47.20, 46.85, 49.36 and 78.93 % in calves, growing heifers and mature heifers respectively. Significant (p<0.05) effect on growth and cyclicity was observed with overall 12 % increase in body weight and 42.88 % of the growing and mature heifers showed signs of estrous. Mineral analysis of feed and fodder samples showed optimum levels except for copper which was quite low. It has been revealed from the study that correlation exists between mineral status of feed, fodder, water offered and blood plasma of the animals. On the basis of present study, it is concluded that a sufficient amount of mineral nutrients has to be supplemented to achieve optimum growth and performance of different stages of development in heifers of this area of Himachal Pradesh.
