Abstract

Data on 744 Murah buffaloes maintained at Buffalo Research Centre, CCS Haryana Agricultural
University, Hisar from the year 1993-94 to 2000-2001 were analysed for studying the trends in
reproductive traits. A significant decrease in age at first calving (AFC) was observed over the years,
the age decreased from 1570 (during 1993-94) to 1440 days (during 1999-2000). No definite pattern
was observed in case of service period (SP) over the years, however, it ranged from 107 to 163 days.
A similar trend was observed in calving interval (Cl), it ranged from 409 to 479 days. Calving interval
and service period improved in favourable direction with advancement of parity.
