The present study was undertaken to evaluate physiological changes of Malvi bullocks during carting bullock drawn sprayer in soybean. Four healthy Malvi breed bullocks owing 6 to 8 years of age were selected for carting operation research work under Front Line Demonstration (FLD) during 2012-13-2013-14, at village Surkheda of Mandsaur (M.P.) There was a significant (P<0.01) increase in all the three physiological parameters (respiration rate, pulse rate and body temperature) as compared to their pre-work values.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate physiological changes of Malvi bullocks during carting bullock drawn sprayer in soybean. Four healthy Malvi breed bullocks owing 6 to 8 years of age were selected for carting operation research work under Front Line Demonstration (FLD) during 2012-13-2013-14, at village Surkheda of Mandsaur (M.P.)
