Abstract : A field survey was conducted to collect the first hand information on the constraints being perceived by Gir cattle breeders in conservation of Gir cattle in Ajmer district of Rajasthan. The data were collected from 160 Gir cattle breeders randomly selected from two tehsils of Ajmer district. As inferred from pooled percentage analysis, the distant location of veterinary hospital was one of the main constraints faced by Gir cattle owners on pooled percentage basis. The frequency and per cent value of this constraint was 146 and 91.25, respectively and this constraint was ranked second in Bhinay while first in Bijainagar tehsil. Abundance of stray animal was the second most serious constraint identified (Pooled per cent value, 89.37) in the study area. Based on tehsil wise percentage, the constraint was ranked first in Bhinay while second in Bijainagar tehsil, respectively. Lack of good breed-able Gir cattle bulls is 86.25 and ranked third on overall basis and ranked third in both Bhinay and Bijainagar tehsil. Key words:
