The buffaloes maintained by farmers at 8 tribal villages of Santrampur and Kadana talukas of Mahisagar district of Gujarat were included in the study conducted during breeding season. All the selected buffaloes were initially dewormed by injecting Ivermection 100 mg s/c and treated once intramuscularly with presynchronization treatment, i.e., sodium acid phosphate 2 g (Inj. Alphos-40, 10 ml), Inj. vitamin AD3E (Inj. Vetacept, 10 ml) and multi-minerals boluses (Bolus-Minotas) orally @ 1 bolus daily for 7 days. The effect of three hormonal protocols was evaluated by comparing the oestrus induction response, oestrus induction interval and induced/first oestrus (with fixed time AI) as well as overall of three cycles' conception rates, and monitoring plasma progesterone (by RIA), total cholesterol, total protein, calcium and inorganic phosphorus (by autoanalyzer) profiles at different time intervals (day 0, 7, 9-AI) of treatment and day 21 post-FTAI in anoestrus buffaloes, and on day of oestrus/AI and day 21 post-AI in anoestrus control group (n=10) and in normal cyclic control buffaloes (n=10).enANIMAL REPRODUCTION, GYNAECOLOGY AND OBSTETRICSA STUDYThesis
