Abstract:
The present study was undertaken to know the comparative efficacy of herbal supplementation on biochemical parameters in hypogalactic buffaloes. Total 32 apparently healthy, hypogalactic buffaloes, free from mastitis were selected for experiment and randomly divided into 4 groups as T1, T2, T3 and T4 each consisting of 08 animals. The T1 group of 08 buffaloes was kept as disease control. All groups received basal ration along with 25 gm mineral mixture (MM). Group T2, T3, T4 received test diet. Comparative efficacy and residual effect of different herbal galactagogues were evaluated on the basis of biochemical parameters (serum calcium, serum phosphorus, total protein, serum albumin and serum globulin). Treatment with Lipidium sativum and Asparagus racemosus (T2) was found to be most efficacious in terms of improvement in biochemical parameters.
