Abstract
This study aimed to investigate effect of season on reproductive performance of Holstein Friesian crossbred heifers and cows under tropical climate of Nakhon Pathom province, Thailand. There are two level of Holstein Friesian crossbred (replacement heifers and dairy cows). Three levels of season of artificial insemination (summer, rainy, winter). Were assigned for the 2 × 3 factorial in completely randomized design of experiment. There are 120 dairy cows divided into 2 factors. Used dairy cows aged 2 - 5 years with average weight of 350 ± 15 kg, were good healthy, day open after birth, and the postpartum period was not more than 45 days (cows), all dairy cows have been vaccinated against foot and mouth disease. The experiment period was 365 days. The results showed that the interaction of reproductive performance, we found that there was interaction for most values (P < 0.01). Reproductive performance were higher in replacement heifers and cows on rainy such as service per conception, first service conception rate, conception rate and pregnancy rate (1.38 No., 83.33 %, 81.25 % and 81.25 %) was significantly differ than dairy cows (P < 0.01). Influence on type of Holstein Friesian crossbred it was found that replacement heifers such as service per conception, first service conception rate and conception rate (1.43 No., 80.05 %, and 77.08) was higher than dairy cows (P < 0.01). And we found that rainy and winter season of artificial insemination exhibited higher conception rate (59.38 % and 54.17 %) than summer season (52.09 %; P < 0.01). Therefore, to increase reproductive performance in cows should be selected for replacement heifer and artificial insemination in during the rainy and winter season it best
