Abstract: Effect of month, season and year on calving pattern and birth weight of calves in crossbred dairy cows reared under semi-intensive organised farm in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India was analysed. The birth rate and birth weight data of 207 calves born during 1999 to 2016 at Livestock Farm Complex, ICAR-Central Island Agricultural Research Institute (ICAR-CIARI), Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India was analysed. Calving rate (%) and birth weight of calves (kg) under different months (January to December), seas… Show more

The present study was outlined to appraise the interrelation between heamatological, blood metabolic pro les and lactation stages in crossbred (CB) dairy cows in ANI. Healthy (n = 18) CB cows with age of 5-7 years were selected from cattle breeding farm, ICAR-CIARI, Port Blair, ANI. Heamatological pro les, serum biochemical pro les, oxidative stress markers and endocrinological pro les were measured at 15day interval from day 01 to 305 of lactation and divided into rst (day 01 to 90), second (day 91 to 180) and third (day 181 to 305) stage of lactation. Average milk yield (L) was not signi cantly differed among the stages of lactations; however, rst (8.42 ± 1.18) and second (9.67 ± 0.25) stages were had higher than third (7.82 ± 0.47) stage of lactation. Hematological pro les were not-differed signi cantly among the stages of lactation; however, these values were within the range of bovine species. Serum biochemical pro les such as glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, total protein and globulin were escalated signi cantly (p < 0.05) as stage of lactation advanced whereas albumin and creatinine were dwindled signi cantly (p < 0.05) as lactation stages progressed. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), calcium, phosphorous and magnesium were nonsigni cantly differed among the stages of lactation. Similarly, serum endocrinological pro les such as Triiodo thyronine (T3), Thyroxine (T4) were surged and prolactin and cortisol were diminished signi cantly (p < 0.05) as stages of lactation progressed. Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was increased and oxidative stress marker (malondialdehyde; MDA) was decreased signi cantly (p < 0.05) as stage progressed. It is concluded that among different stages of lactation, rst and second stages are more stressful events as contrast to third stage of lactation in crossbred cattle in humid tropical island ecosystem of ANI.

Andaman and Nicobar islands are one of the regions with unique diversity of flora including about 300 endemic species. These islands are also home to six native tribes, some of which are still living their life in primitive ways. The native phyto-diversity is routinely employed by these aboriginals and settler communities for a variety of purposes including food, medicines, timber etc. In the present review, diversity of crop wild relatives of commercial spices and plantation crops present in the islands along with their utilization by the tribes and other communities is discussed. Further, being botanically related to commercial crops, such species could greatly contribute in crop improvement programmes to meet the challenges arising out of climate change. Considering these, systematic studies are envisaged to document, regenerate, conserve and characterize such economically and ecologically useful species so that they could be utilized for the betterment of human kind. Present review concerned highlighting the importance of these issues in the context of fragile island ecosystem of the Bay Islands.

A nutrient omission plot technique (NOPT) study in RCBD with 8 treatments (omission (-) of N, P, K, NP, NK, PK and no nutrient omission)and 3 replicates per treatment was made on rice at Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands during kharif 2015 to ascertain yield response and find out the most crucial nutrient for fertilization.The results revealed that yield response to fertilizers (NPK) was 2.63 t / ha (60.74%). The yield response of P (23.3 %) got multiplied by 2.16 and 2.60 times when combined with N and K applications as compared to their individual effects. Indigenous N, P and K supply capacity of the soil was estimated as 70.6, 10.0 and 80.0 kg/ha. Agronomic efficiency (kg grain / kg nutrient applied) was severely limited by P omission (10.13). The economics(Rs/ha) of rice cultivation indicates that omission of NPK & NP fertilizers results in losses. The highest profits realized with no omission (+NPK) were reduced by 52.3% with P omission. Omission of K followed by N and NK has less impact on profits. Rice crop duration got prolonged and shortened under P and N omission while K omission has no such effect.
