چکیده مقاله :
This study was conducted to investigate the scenario of buffalo production and reproduction under different farming systems at Subarno Char, in the coastal area of Bangladesh. A total of 14 farms were randomly selected and studied for various traits live weight (LW); daily milk yield (DMY); lactation length (LL); lactation production (LP); calving interval (CI); gestation length (GL); post partum heat period (PPH); age at first calving (AFC) and service per conception (SPC) of buffaloes through pre designed questionnaire, direct observation and available records. The LW (372.31±14.64 kg) and DMY (1.99±0.16 liter/day/cow) were found to be highest under semi-intensive bathan farming systems than other systems, however, the LL (275.25±2.857 days) and LP (628.80±34.49 liter) were found higher under extensive bathan farming system irrespective of breeds. On the other hand, LW (390.54±14.06 kg), DMY (2.82±0.13 liter/day/cow), LL (284.96±3.31 days) and LP (899.75±52.83 liter) were higher in River type buffaloes than other types. The GL (305.37±0.72 days), CI (640.34±51.31 days), AFC (54.72±1.57 months) and SPC (1.62±0.21) were found lowest under semi-intensive bathan farming system, but PPHP (134.04±5.30 days) was found lowest under the extensive bathan farming system. The GL (301.74±0.63 days), PPHP (123.21±7.50 days), AFC (47.00±1.35 months) and SPC (1.40±0.16) were found lowest in River type buffaloes, but CI (660.31±43.82) was lowest in crossbred buffalo cows. The birth weight was highest (28.28±0.48 kg) under semi-intensive bathan farming system. Productive and reproductive performances of buffaloes under the study area found were moderate. The profitability of buffalo rearing under extensive farming system was higher than other. The findings of this study may assist farmers and policy makers in making decisions for future buffalo farming and undertaking the genetic improvement program to increase the milk production in Bangladesh.
در این مطالعه، تولید و تولیدمثل گاومیش تحت سیستمهای پرورش مختلف در منطقه ساحلی سوبارنو چار بنگلادش مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. 14 مزرعه به صورت تصادفی انتخاب شده و از نظر صفات وزن زنده (LW)، تولید شیر روزانه (DMY)، طول دوره شیردهی (LL)، تولید در دوره شیردهی (LP)، فاصله زایش (CI)، طول آبستنی (GL)، دوره فحلی پس از زایش (PPH)، سن در نخستین زایش (AFC) و تعداد آمیزش به ازای هر آبستنی (SPC) با استفاده از پرسشنامه، مشاهده مستقیم و رکوردهای در دسترس مورد مطالع قرار گرفتند. LW (64/14±31/372 کیلوگرم) و DMY (16/0±99/1 لیتر در هر روز به ازای هر گاو) در سیستمهای پرورش باسان نیمه فشرده در مقایسه با سایر سیستمها بالاتر بوده ولی LL (857/2±25/275) و LP (49/34±80/628 لیتر) بیشتر از سیستم پرورش باسان باز، فارغ از نژاد حیوانات بوده است. از طرف دیگر، LW (06/14±54/390 کیلوگرم)، DMY (13/0±82/2 لیتر در هر روز به ازای هر گاو)، LL (31/3±96/284 روز) و LP (83/52±75/899 لیتر) در گاومیشهای تیپ رودخانهای بالاتر از سایر تیپها بوده است. GL (72/0±37/305 روز)، CI (31/51±34/640 روز)، AFC (57/1±72/54 ماه) و SPC (21/0±62/1) در سیستم پرورش باسان نیمه فشرده از سایر سیتمها پایینتر بوده ولی PPHP (30/5±04/134 روز) در سیستم پرورش باسان باز از سایر سیستمها کمتر بوده است. GL (63/0±74/301 روز)، PPHP (50/7±21/123 روز)، AFC (35/1±00/47 ماه) و SPC (16/0±40/1) در گاومیشهای تیپ رودخانهای پایینتر بوده ولی CI (82/43±31/660) در آمیختههای گاومیش و گاو پایینتر بوده است. وزن تولد (48/0±28/28 کیلوگرم) در سیستم پرورش باسان نیمهفشرده بالاتر بوده است. عملکرد تولیدی و تولیدمثلی گاومیشها در منطقه مورد مطالعه متوسط بوده است. سودآوری پرورش گاومیش در سیستم پرورش باز بیش از سایر سیتمها بود. یافتههای این مطالعه میتواند به پرورش دهندگان و سیاستگذاران در تصمیمگیریهای آینده در زمینه پرورش گاومیش و برنامههای اصلاح ژنتیکی برای افزایش تولید شیر در بنگلادش کمک نماید.
