Author(s): Beshatu Jalata, Habtamu Abera Goshu*, Tesfaye Mediksa, Dereje Bekele and Mohammed Aliye
The estrus detection system, proper time of insemination, feeding, and health care practices each make a significant contribution towards the herd's optimal breeding efficiency and lifetime production. In the subhumid environments of Ethiopia, the age at first calving, days open, calving to first heat and services per conception are economic traits in the reproductive performance of Horro and their crossbred dairy cows. As a result, data collected at Ethiopia's Bako agricultural research center from 1980 to 2019 were used to study the reproductive performance of Horro and their crosses with Holstein Friesian and jersey dairy cows. The overall mean ± standard error of Age at First Service (AFS), Age at First Calving (AFC), Number of Services Per conception (NSP), Calving Interval (CI), Days Open (DO), Conception Rate (CR) and Replacement Rate (RR) were 29.2 ± 0.2 ..
