Abstract
The data on 122 calvings from 58 interse progeny of
Holstein Friesian (HF) and Deoni (D) breed for a period of 12
years were considered for the study. The data were collected
from Cattle Cross Breeding Project (CCBP), Marathwada
Agricultural University, Parbhani for season of calving and
parity. The effect of season of calving and parity on dry period
and intercalving period was studied. The least square means (LSM)
for dry period and intercalving period were 185.62+17.23 days
and 470.13+18.28 days, respectively. The effect of season of
calving and parity on dry period and intercalving period were
non-significant.
