Abstract

Thirty eight (38) anestrus cattle were included to evaluate the response of Gynolactin (mineral supplement) and povidin (0.5% iodine). Animals were divided into 5 groups viz. Group 1, one bolus daily for 14 days; Group II, two boluses alternate for 7 days, Group III, one bolus daily for 14 days+10ml, 0.5% povidin I/U, Group IV, 2 boluses alternate day for 7 days+10ml, 0.5% povidin I/U Group V, control animals. Cattle were considered responder, which had shown heat symptoms within 40–42 days of the end of the treatment, Gynolactin 2 boluses alone and along with povidin 0.5% showed better result i.e 71.42 and 62.5% animals conceived in group IV and II, respectively in comparison to other groups.
