Forty pubertal and peripubertal buffalo heifers divided into four groups. Groups I and III were supplemented with mineral mixture. Group II and III were treated with Ovsynch protocol consisted of10 μgi.m. injection of GnRH on the day of start (d 0), 500 µg i.m. injection of PGF2α seven days later (d 7), another 10 μgi.m. injection of GnRH 48 h after PGF2α (d 9) and AI 16 to 18 h after second GnRH injection (d 10). Group IV was control. The ovulatory response and conception rates were 50.00 and 20.00; 60.00 and 30.00; 90.00 and 40.00 and 100.00 and 20.00 per cent in Group I to IV, respectively.
