The data on 659 and 681 records of different
crosses of Holstein-Friesian X Sahiwal crossbreds on age at maturity (first
observed heat) and age at first conception respectively were analyzed. The data
was spread over 17 years from 1974 to 1990. The overall least squares means and
SE for age at maturity and age at 1st conception were 618.42, 6.78
and 697.51, 8.03 days, respectively. The significant effect of year of birth and
genetic groups was observed in both the traits while the effect of season of
birth was non significant for age at I SI conception and significant for age at
maturity .It was observed that 3/4 crosses has significantly lower age for both
the traits.
