First Sahiwal calf through surrogacy born under TTD-SVVU project | Dt Next

The ambitious project taken up by the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) and Sri Venkateswara Veterinary University (SVVU) to promote indigenous cattle breeds has succeeded in bringing to life the State’s first ‘Sahiwal’ breed calf, born through surrogacy.

The calf from the donor cow and bull, both Sahiwal breed, was born to a surrogate cow of the Ongole breed here on Saturday evening. Ten more pregnant cows are ready to spawn calves in the next few days.

Considered the brainchild of Chief Secretary K.S. Jawahar Reddy, the project was initiated during his stint as the TTD Executive Officer. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the TTD’s Sri Venkateswara Gosamrakshanasala and the varsity’s College of Veterinary Science, Tirupati, for the augmentation of productivity of cattle and production of embryos through the in-vitro method at the college’s IVF lab.
