PERFORMAN REPRODUKSI PADA PERSILANGAN KAMBING BOER DAN PERANAKAN ETAWAH (PE)
ABSTRACT: The study tends to
evaluate the reproductive performances of Boer x PE goats crossbred in field
laboratory “Sumber Sekar” of the Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Brawijaya
University. Data covered the reproductive performance from 2010 – 2012
including data from 23 multipaorous does (11 does of pure Boer goats, 12 does
of Boer x PE crossbred). The results shows that service per conception (S/C) of
the pure Boer was 3.09 ± 1.57 and 2.75± 1.35 for the crossbred (P>0.05). The
days open (DO) of the Boer goat was 202.71 ± 95.56 days this was not
significantly difference to the crossbred goats (208.04 ±137.51days). The
kidding interval (316.84 ± 125.64 days vs. 360.45 ± 148.96 days) and the litter
size (1.78 ±0.71 vs. 1.70 ± 0.86) were not significantly difference (P>0.05)
between the respective groups. In conclusion, the crossing program between male
Boer goats and male PE does did not influence the reproductive performances in
both goats (pure Boer goats and their crosses with local PE goats).
Key words: litter size,
service per conception, days open, kidding interval, litter size
