Estimates of the Economic Cost Caused by Five Major Reproductive Problems in Dairy Animals in Assam and Bihar, India

Abstract: Reproductive problems in dairy animals reduce fertility, prevent conception, create problems in the delivery of healthy calves, lead to postpartum complications, increase inter-calving periods, reduce milk yield, and lower overall lifetime productivity. This study aimed at understanding the incidence of reproductive problems and the cost caused by these. The study covered 954 dairy animals in Bihar and 1348 dairy animals in Assam that were selected using a multi-stage random sampling method. The costs were cal… Show more

“…In dairy production, reproductive performance and profitability are strongly associated. Declining fertility is a globally recognized problem that represents a major source of economic loss and culling in large ruminants [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. Many factors contribute to the decline in reproductive efficiency.…”

“…Moreover, the OR of pregnancy in repeat compared with non-repeat breeder cows was 0.73 [5]. The higher incidence of repeat breeder cows increased the interval from calving to conception and increased culling in dairy herds, leading to severe economic losses [4,17,32].…”

“…The incidence rate of PR was reported as 12.3% in Iran (Mahnani et al, 2021b), 10.4% in Tanzania (Komba and Kashoma, 2020), 8.8% in France (Fourichon et al, 2001b), 7.8% in USA (Goff, 2006), 6.6% in Netherlands (Joosten et al, 1987), 6.5% in Denmark (Bruun et al, 2002), 6.1% in India (Deka et al, 2021), 3-6% in England (Esslemont and Kossibati, 1996), 3.1% in Australia (Stevenson, 2000). So, the incidence rate of PR in Turkey is nearly at an average level.…”
