Abstract:

Cattle and buffalo are major livestock species for milk production contributing significantly to the economy of our country. High conception rates are crucial in a successful dairy farm to obtain a calf a year and sustained milk production. However, Repeat breeding continues to pose a major threat to economy of a successful farm. The main causes that convert high milk yielding dairy cattle and buffaloes into repeaters are mainly conception failure and early fetal death which may further have varying infectious and non-infectious etiologies, thereby severely disrupting the income.
