Abstract: This study was conducted in order to determine the breeding performance of Indu Brazil bulls under the dispersal program of the Don Severino Agricultural College. It was conducted from February to March 1977. The different farmers involved in the dispersal program were the respondents for this study. Sixteen farmers having one head of Indu Brazil bull have been interviewed. The different respondents lived in the neighboring cities, towns and barrios of Indang. Most of the farmers finished at least elementary grade and they usually had two to eleven dependents° They acquired their cattle in 1974. Feeds given to tae cattle usually come from the farm. In addition they were given either salt or molasses as a feed supplement. Self feeding was the feeding method used. Heifers were bred at the age of two to three years with the Indu Brazil bulls. Natural breeding was used while vaginal and palpation methods were used in determining the pregnancy of cows. A total of 46 cows were bred by the 16 ballso The highest nuwher. of cows bred per bull was seven while the lowest was one Out of the numbers 40 cows conceived while six did not have conception. The highest ferti-lity rate was 100 percent while the lowest was 50 per-cent. Ten bulls had 100 percent fertility level while only two had 50 percent. On the average, the 16 Indu-Brazil bulls had an 81.35 percent fertility rate. Six cattle had aborted while two had stillbirth. All the rest have normal delivery. At the age of four to five years old, cattle were directly sold to the consumers Wildness and size difference between bull and native cowlis during mating were the common problem met by the farmers.
