Hidden resources of buffalo productivity.
2009
Current reproduction indices in buffalo are presented. They are compared to the same indices in dairy cows of dual purpose breeds in case of an ideal calving interval of 365 days and in case of a mean 400 days calving interval for cow and the reported 437 days calving interval for buffalo. It was find out longer non productive periods (dry period for milk and empty – sp – periods for meat production) in buffalo. Concerning the milk production the recommended way to push up the productivity of buffalo females is to improve their genetic potential. Concerning the meat production the first way of acting is shorten the interval between calving and the fertile mating or insemination. Such result can be obtained using biotechnological procedure stimulating follicular maturity. Shortening of the calving interval will decrease the dry periods as well. The aim of the action has to be a 365 days calving interval in buffalo
