Abstract
The present experiment was undertaken to study the clinical
efficacy of PGF2-a (Clostenol, M/s. Zydus Animal Health
Ltd.,India.) by intravulvo-submucosal route for induction of
estrus in buffalo. Total 20 postpartum buffalo were selected
from BuffaloResearch and Instructional Farm, COVAS, Parbhani.
The animals from group-I (IVSM) reported 80 per cent induction
of estrus with mean time interval between treatment and onset of
estrus as 83.70 + 2.50h., average duration of estrus was 21.80 +
1.41h while conception rate was found to be 80 per cent. The
animals from group-II (control group) also reported 80 per cent
induced estrus; average duration of estrus was 22.6+0.92 hr,
while the conception rate was 40 per cent.
Keywords: PGF2 a, Conception rate, Intravulvo-submucosal
route.
