PREGNANCY RATES IN COWS INSEMINATED WITH CONVENTIONAL NON-SORTED AND GENDER SORTED SEMEN UNDER FIELD CONDITION

Abstract

The study was designed to compare the efficacy of conventional and gender sorted semen in cows. Overall pregnancy rate was 57.14 %, when cows were inseminated with conventional non-sorted semen. Cows inseminated with gender sorted semen resulted in overall pregnancy rate of 50.00 %. The results revealed no significant difference (p>0.05) in conception rates between the groups of cows. The overall conception rate in this study including cows from both the groups was found to be 53.57 %.
