The breeding soundness evaluation (BSE) plays an important step in selection of buffalo bull for the said above purpose. This evaluation is an effective, inexpensive and easy method for selection of breeding buffalo bull. In buffalo breeding management programme, the seasonal variation, nutrition, congenital defect, hormonal changes and hereditary plays a critical role in determining the reproductive efficiency in buffalo bull. The information regarding to the reproductive health of buffalo bull is meager for breeding soundness evaluation.
