Abstract

The study evaluates the hormonal response in post-partum anestrous Graded Murrah buffaloes with varied parity and body conditions score in relation to conception. Post-partum Sub-estrus and true anestrous buffaloes were adopted with different hormonal protocols and recorded conception and pregnancy rate during breeding and low breeding season in farm and field conditions. Conception and pregnancy rate varied in relation to body condition score. BCS was negative correlated with pregnancy but was non significant (P>0.05) in the study.
