“…The average yields obtained for different months were nearer to the values reported by Singh (2006) in Karan Fries cattle. However, the monthly averages obtained in the present study were higher than the estimates reported by Kumar (1990), Varshney and Tomar (1982), Shrivastava and Khan (1987), Raja (2012) and Mundhe et al (2015) in Sahiwal cattle. Similarly, the estimates were also higher than the average individual monthly yields of Jersey and Holstein Friesian cattle in Asom as reported by Das et al (2006).…”

“…The results also revealed that the average individual monthly milk yield was highest at second month of lactation and thereafter showed a gradual decline in the monthly milk production. Roy et al (2001) and Mundhe et al (2015) also reported similar trend of highest 2 nd month milk yield followed by a gradual decline till 10 th month of lactation in Holstein Friesian and Sahiwal cattle, respectively.…”

“…The significant influence of season of calving on various individual monthly milk yields was observed by many workers (Shrivastava and Khan 1987, Kumar 1990, Gaur 1996, Pawar and Narayankhedkar 2002, Singh 2006, Raja 2010, Mundhe et al 2015 in different breeds of cattle. However, Singh et al (1988) and Qureshi et al (1995) reported non-significant influence of season of calving on different part lactation milk yields in Sahiwal and Gir cattle, respectively.…”

In the present study, the individual monthly milk yields of 442 Frieswal cows sired by 30 bulls at Military Dairy Farm, Meerut over a period of 8 years (2006–2013) were analyzed to study the effect of various factors. The effect of sire was not significant on any of the monthly yields while the season of calving had significant effect on average milk yields at eighth, ninth and tenth months of lactation. The period of calving had significant effect only on ninth month of lactation while the age at first calving had highly significant effect on yield up to first seven months of lactation. Based on the results, it was concluded that the winter months are the most suitable season for the Frieswal cows to produce more milk and the age at first calving should be maintained at optimum so as to increase the milk production performance of Frieswal cows.

“…The usefulness of part lactation records depends upon the accuracy with which sires are evaluated on the basis of these records besides the genetic correlations between part lactation milk yield records and 305-day milk yield. Literature available on part lactation milk yield also revealed that these milk yields can be used for prediction of 305-day milk yield as high genetic association between monthly part lactation milk yield and complete milk production records was observed Mundhe et al (2018). Sire evaluation is most essential for selection of sire and for genetic improvement of cattle.…”

This study investigated the impact of parity, period of calving, and season of calving on various production and reproduction traits in Hardhenu cattle. Third‐parity cows outperformed first and second‐parity cows, exhibiting significantly higher total milk yield (TMY), 305 days milk yield (305d MY), peak yield (PY), and artificial insemination per conception (AIPC) (p < .01). The Lactation length (LL) was inversely related to parity, with first‐parity cows having extended lactations (p < .05). The period of calving had a substantial influence on production traits. The season of calving was critical, affecting production traits differently across parities. First‐parity cows had the highest TMY and 305d MY during winter and summer calving, with summer calving associated with shorter LL (p < .05). Second‐parity cows showed higher TMY and 305d MY during summer calving, while third‐parity cows had higher TMY in winter (p < .01). PY followed similar patterns to TMY, with LL affected by the season of calving. Additionally, the study explored interactions between parity, period of calving, and season of calving on reproduction traits. Third‐parity cows had higher AIPC compared to first and second‐parity cows (p < .01). Reproduction traits were also significantly affected by the period of calving, with cows calving in the 2017–2021 period displaying longer service period (SP), calving interval (CI), dry period (DP), and AIPC (p < .01). These findings highlight the complex interplay of biological, environmental, and management factors in shaping the productivity and reproductive efficiency of Hardhenu cattle, emphasizing the need for multifaceted considerations to optimize herd performance.
