Data Mediterranean buffalo heats (324 spontaneous and 97 inducted by alfaprostol) have been examined. Three different levels of average temperature, thermic range, rainess and daylight were refered. Results showed that reproductive activity of buffalo breed in Italy is influenced by climatic conditions. A delay of the pituitary response to the ovaric steroisds, either in spontaneous or induced heats, occurs beyond 11 hours of daylight and with temperature below 8°C (cold springs). The oldest buffaloes feel mostly the climatic conditions, particularly when rainfall reduces.

Abstract
Data Mediterranean buffalo heats (324 spontaneous and 97 inducted by alfaprostol) have been examined. Three different levels of average temperature, thermic range, rainess and daylight were refered. Results showed that reproductive activity of buffalo breed in Italy is influenced by climatic conditions. A delay of the pituitary response to the ovaric steroisds, either in spontaneous or induced heats, occurs beyond 11 hours of daylight and with temperature below 8°C (cold springs). The oldest buffaloes feel mostly the climatic conditions, particularly when rainfall reduces.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
