The pattern of calving was documented in
Bhadawari and Murrah buffaloes. Lactation records
of 246 Bhadawari and 234 Murrah buffaloes were
used. The climate of the Bundelkhand region is
of the semi-arid type. The region is marked by
extremes of temperature, reaching up to 48oC
during the summer months and dropping as low
as 1ºC in winter. The calving pattern was similar
in Bhadawari and Murrah buffaloes. Season and
month had a signifi cant effect on calving. The
calving frequency was highest during the rainy
season (41.87% in Bhadawari and 40.17% in
Murrah) followed by the autumn season (28.5%
in Bhadawari and 35.04 in Murrah). The lowest
percentage of calving (4.88 in Bhadawari and
3.85 in Murrah) was observed during the summer
season. The seasonal calving pattern observed in
both the breeds in the Bundelkhand region follow
the same seasonal calving trend as in other parts of
the country and most parts of the world.
