Abstract
Reproductive performance is one of the most important factors affecting dairy farm profitability and
the development of national economy, as well as the living standard of rural and urban societies, Because, it
directly or indirectly influences the yield of milk, reproductive culling rate and the cost for breeding and calfsales. Dairy cows should calve one time every year to maximize economic efficiency. Cows that have been
highly selected for milk production in recent decades have suffered a decline in cow fertility, fertility is a multifactorial
trait and its deterioration has been caused by a network of genetic, environmental and managerial
factors and their complex interactions. Majorly, hormonal imbalance is the prime reason for causing infertility
in dairy animals. In this on farm testing, T1 group (10 crossbred animals) was farmer’s practice of adopting
various infertility treatment strategies. In T2 group (10 crossbred animals) Controlled Internal Drug Release
(CIDR) whereas, T3 group, ProSync-NC Nano Cream Progesterone was used. In farmers practice (T1),
the farmers were not adopted any measure or irrational use of various kinds of treatments for infertility. In
connection with this, farmers are unable to produce the next calf within 12-14 months interval. This indirectly
postpones the lactation. In case of recommended practice (T2) –The farmers are advised to use Controlled
Internal Drug Release (CIDR) for Progesterone which has given the promising results. about 70 per cent in
on farm testing. In case of recommended practice (T3) – Comparison was made ProSync-NC Nano Cream
Progesterone. In on farm testing, it has given40 per cent success results. The benefit cost ration in T1, T2 and
T3 are 1.04, 2.60 and 2.03
