The incidence and treatment of retention of placenta and its effect on subsequent fertility in buffaloes were investigated in the surroundings of Tandojam. The buffaloes were divided into seven treatment groups as A, B, C, D, E, F and G. Group-A; received no treatment, whereas group-B; oxytocin 5 ml only, group-C; oxytocin 5ml + Penivet 5g, group-D; oxytocin 5ml + Milfone-C 300 ml, group-F; manual removal + Penivet 5 g + oxytocin 5 ml + Milfone-C 300 ml + Utenol pessaries 6 number (intrauterine) and group-G; the animals completing their calving process normally served as the control group. The data on incidence of retained placenta, first postpartum service period, number of services per conception and fertility rate were recorded. The overall incidence of retention of placenta was recorded as 11 %. The service period in group A, B, C, D, E, F and G, was 194.2 plus minus 9.92, 123.05 plus minus 6.89, 133.05 plus minus 7.95, 119.55 plus minus 6 .69, 115.80 plus minus 5.3, 109.48 plus minus 5.79 and 98.12 plus minus 1.62 days, respectively. The number of services per conception was 2.0, 1.87, 2.0, 1.5, 1.56 and 1.04 in the groups, respectively. Fertility was observed 21.05%, 40.0%, 30.0 %, 50.0% 69.56% and 74.85% in the B, C, D, E, F and G, group, respectively. None of the animals was conceived in Group-A. In group-F, where manual removal of the retained fetal mass was followed by the administration of oxytocin, calcium and antibiotics locally as well as parenterally was significantly superior to all the other treatment groups in giving high fertility rate in buffalo.
