title: Induction of estrus in anestrous cows treated with 'Fertivet'.
abstract: The effectiveness of 'Fertivet' (180 mg. Cisclomiphene Citrate and 120 mg. Transclomiphene citrate mixture) in the induction of estrus and fertility was tested on sixteen anestrous cows. Of all the animals treated 14 (97.5%) expressed estrus and 8 (57.1%) conceived. Among the three breeds of cows treated, 5 out of 5 Brown Swiss, 4 out of 5 Jersey cross breeds and 5 out of 6 Sahiwal (Zebu) cows expressed estrus. These results indicate the usefulness of 'Fertivet' in the induction of fertile estrus in cows.
