Description
Summary:Hematological parameters have provided useful information about the animal health status. The main objective of the study was to measure the hematological profile of Sumba Ongole (SO) cattle extensively reared in semi-arid land in Sumba, NTT. Blood samples from seventy-five animals were examined to measure its hematological parameters based on age and sex. Animal were grouped based on sex into male and female in the age groups 1.5 to 3 years (n=42), 3.5 to 4 years (n=23) and ≥ 5 years (n=10). Mean standard error values of all the hematological parameters for The SO cattle, both male and female cattle at different age of group were measured. Several hematological parameters, such as erythrocytes, platelets, hemoglobin, hematocrit and mean corpuscular volume (MCV) level were significantly different (p
