“…Mn concentration in 90-120 days lactation dairy cows was reported to be 0.206 ppm (Djokovic et al, 2014). Similar concentrations were reported by Mudgal et al (2012) in sahiwal (0.18 ppm) and crossbred cattle (0.21 ppm). In the present study Mn level was lower compared to other experiments whereas in control and test group of Hill region it approached normal figure on 90days of feeding.…”

“…Djokovic et al (2014) reported serum level of Co to be 0.018 ppm in dairy cattle in 90-120 days of lactation. Mudgal et al (2012) reported serum concentration of Co to be 0.56 ppm and 0.51 ppm in Sahiwal and crossbred cattles, respectively. In the present study serum concentration above normal (0.05 -0.18 ppm) suggested an optimal level in the feed of cows.…”

In the present study effect of feeding area specific mineral mixture on the serum mineral status of cattle in different agro climatic zones (plateau, plain and hills) of Chhattisgarh state was studied. The soil and fodder mineral status of different zones were analyzed. Macro minerals were below desired level in soil of hill region followed by plateau and plain whereas Mg level in soils of different zones were well above the critical level. Soil Fe, Mo concentration was above whereas Mn, Co, Zn concentration was deficient in all the three zones. Cu level was normal in hill region whereas, it was lower in Plateau and Plain. Fodder concentration of Cu, Zn exhibited direct relationship with soil mineral status whereas no direct association was observed for Ca and p concentration. In each zone fifteen cattle were selected and divided into three groups for different dietary treatments like negative control-no mineral supplementation; control-commercial mineral mixture supplementation @ 80 gm/day and treatment-area specific mineral mixture @ 80 gm/day. No significant relationship between fodder and serum mineral status could be established, indicative of unsuitability of fodder mineral status in assessing the mineral status. Serum concentration of specific minerals at different zones revealed no significant difference in response to commercial and area specific mineral mixture supplementation. Supplementation of area specific mineral mixture was not essential for agro-climatic zones of Chhattisgarh.

“…Cu-Zn SOD is involved in the regulation of cell functions such as progesterone production from the luteal cells (Sugino et al 2000) and altered steroidogenesis in Cu and Zn deficient animals might be the reason for poor estrus expression or silent heat. The Zn deficiency leads to retained placenta, embryonic death and irregular estrus (Mudgal et al 2012).…”

The reasons for declining fertility in dairy cattle and buffaloes are being investigated intensely to improve the productivity. The present study was conducted to assess the extent of reproductive disorders and possible causes in cattle and buffaloes. Data on various managemental aspects and reproductive status were recorded. The blood samples were collected from the animals without reproductive problems and reproductively problematic animals. The plasma was separated and analyzed for minerals, hormones and biochemical status. The study revealed that21% of the animals had reproductive disorders, of which, repeat breeders were predominantly high (51.5%), followed by post-partum anestrus (22.8%), delayed puberty (15.74%) and silent heat (2.4%). Based on history, rectal examination and the plasma progesterone levels, silent estrus was observed in 18% (3/16) of the postpartum anestrus animals and luteal insufficiency was observed in 54% (6/11) of the repeat breeders. The blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level was higher in repeat breeders and normal animals as compared to silent heat. Overall, 50% (77/155) of the animals showed a negative energy balance irrespective of the reproductive status. The 55.5% of the postpartum anestrus (10/18) and silent heat (5/9) animals were in negative energy status. The HDL cholesterol was lower in animals with delayed puberty than in normal animals. The plasma levels of calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and zinc (Zn) were lower in the silent heat as compared to normal animals. The present study revealed the importance of HDL cholesterol in attaining puberty and essential role of Mg in maintaining optimum reproductive efficiency in dairy animals.
