Abstract
Aim:
The present study was carried out to compare the associated
role of micro minerals and hormones in repeat breeding animals
with the normal crossbred cows.
Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from 10
normal cycling and 10 repeat breeding crossbred cows of
Ramakrishna Mission Ashram, Narendrapur to study the plasma
mineral profile and hormonal activities.
Results: Zn was found to be highly
significant (p<0.01) between the two groups. Follicle stimulating
hormone (FSH) and progesterone showed significant (p<0.05)
difference in repeat breeding animal from the normal cyclic
animal, whereas no significant differences were observed in Ca, P,
Cu, Se, Co, luteinizing hormone and estradiol level.
Conclusion: It may conclude that repeat
breeding condition of crossbred cows in farm condition is mainly
due to the low level of progesterone, FSH and zinc.
Keywords: crossbred cow, hormone, mineral
profile, normal cyclic, repeat breeding.
