THE RESULTS OF REPRODUCTION UTILITY OF THE POLISH PRIMITIVE HORSE IN THE CHOSEN STUD FARM IN POLAND IN THE PERIOD
Abstract
The analysis of Polish Primitive Horse reproduction, in the stable breeding in Dobrzyniewo, was carried out in the period 1993/1994 – 2003/2004. On the basis of the carried out analysis it is evident systematic increase (positive trend) of basic coefficients of reproduction (foaling, fertility, fecundity, birth) and a decrease of coefficients of infertility and abortions. On the other hand leading sires were stallions: Mikrus and Jehol, which were utilised in reproduction for the period of 11 years while mares covered by these stallions had relatively high coefficients of reproduction.
