Discussion

Comparative study shows differing estrus rates with PGF2α, GnRH, and CIDR protocols in buffaloes, indicating varying efficiency.

CIDR protocol significantly increased estrus response compared to PGF2α and Ovsynch protocols.
Estrus rates in buffaloes synchronized with CIDR were significantly higher (P=0.035) than with PGF2α and Ovsynch.
No significant differences were found in conception rates among the protocols (P=0.823).
Cost analysis showed lower expenses associated with synchronized calves in the CIDR group with PGF2α.

Roy et al. (2025) studied this question.
