Evaluation of the productivity of the Belgian Blue x POGASI crossbred cattle raised at the Beef Cattle Research Station

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the productivity of the Belgian Blue x POGASI crossbred cattle raised at the Beef Cattle Research Station located at Grati, Pasuruan. Therefore, data on productivity, such as body measurements, birth, weaning, and yearling weight, as well as reproductive performances, were collected and analyzed using t-tests from 11 calves of Belgian Blue x POGASI (F1) crossbred cattle consisting of 5 males and 6 females, and also 11 calves of POGASI cattle consisting of 3 males and 8 females. From the results, there were significant differences (P<0.05) in body measur... Mehr ...

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the productivity of the Belgian Blue x POGASI crossbred cattle raised at the Beef Cattle Research Station located at Grati, Pasuruan. Therefore, data on productivity, such as body measurements, birth, weaning, and yearling weight, as well as reproductive performances, were collected and analyzed using t-tests from 11 calves of Belgian Blue x POGASI (F1) crossbred cattle consisting of 5 males and 6 females, and also 11 calves of POGASI cattle consisting of 3 males and 8 females. From the results, there were significant differences (P<0.05) in body measurements between Belgian Blue x POGASI crosses and the POGASI cattle. Specifically, the Belgian Blue x POGASI crossbred calves had birth, weaning, and a yearling weight of 34.45±6.55 kg, 218.08±37.99 kg and 368.05±41.77 kg, respectively, as well as age at first estrus and libido of 12.99±3.13 months and 16.53±1.45 months, respectively. Also, the crossbred calves had body weight at first estrus and libido of 413.25±38.46 kg and 489.75±42.60 kg, respectively. In conclusion, the productivity of Belgian Blue x POGASI crossbred calves was higher than that of POGASI calves. Therefore, it was concluded that BB x POGASI calves produced greater performances than POGASI calves.
