The experiment was divided into three phases : pre-treatment, during treatment and post-treatment; each of eight weeks keeping equal number of bulls as control. Significant (P /0.05) effect of treatment was observed on reaction time, semen volume, total sperm count, total solids, total protein, citric acid, potassium and (P /0.01) serum testosterone level. Sustained significant effect of treatment was observed on citric acid (P /0.05) and serum testosterone level (P /0.01) during post-treatment phase. Significant (P /0.05) correlations due to treatment were observed between reaction time (negative), colour and consistency; (P /0.01) total protein, citric acid and initial fructose and testosterone. It was concluded that treatment with clomiphene citrate increased the testosterone levels in blood which reduced the reaction time and increased the sperm concentration to a threshold level and activity of accessory sex glands. Post-treatment effects sustained only for few weeks.enVETERINARY OBSTETRICS AND GYNAECOLOGYA STUDYEFFECT OF CLOMIPHENE CITRATE (FERTIVET FVT 300) ON SEXUAL BEHAVIOUR AND SEMEN QUALITY IN SURTI BUFFALO BULLSThesis
