Title
ICT Based Cattle Heat Period, Insemination and Fertility Management Model.
Abstract
Reproductive efficiency of the dairy herd is important for the economic success of the cattle owners and dairy operations in rural India. Artificial insemination is a scientific reproductive technology that is popular in the dairy industry. Efficient heat detection management and correct insemination timing are crucial issues that play pivotal roles in reproduction. The timing of insemination must ensure that the fertile life of sperms and eggs are synchronized. There are many reasons for the failure of artificial insemination or natural service. A sample survey of cattle owners shows that large percentage of the owners miss heat period and except some kind of arrangement that intimates them regarding heat period. Challenge is to intimate the concerned persons on time regarding the heat period. This paper focuses on the information needed and how communication technology can be helpful to intimate concerned people about heat period and status of of the cattle. Based on facts of the survey we proposed the information and communication based model to manage heat period, insemination and fertility. We have developed software as a part of the model. This low cost solution can be helpful to improve the fertility of the dairy herd and economy of owners.
