Abstract
The levels of hormones and minerals were studied in 40 normal cyclic, anest rus and subestrus buffalo heifers. The anestrus animals had lower hormonal and mineral (estradiol, thyroid hormones, inorganic phosphorus, iron and co pper) concentrations. A specific balance of hormones/minerals is essential for the normal reproductive performance of buffaloes.
