Oestrus synchronisation and fertility in black Bengal goats following administration of progesterone/prostaglandin and gonadotrophins.

Oestrus synchronisation, fertility and kidding behaviour were studied in 44 Black Bengal goats. They were divided into six experimental groups: group 1, control; group 2, progesterone; group 3, progesterone, pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG); group 4, prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha); group 5, PGF2 alpha, PMSG and HCG; group 6, PMSG and HCG. There was 100 per cent synchronisation of oestrus in the groups treated with progesterone, progesterone with PMSG and HCG, and prostaglandin with PMSG and HCG. In the other two treated groups the synchronisation was between 66 and 75 per cent. In the control group only 50 per cent of the animals came into oestrus during the period of observation. The duration of oestrus varied between 19 and 24 hours except in group 5 where it was 40.87 hours. Animals came on heat between 95 and 137 hours after treatment except in group 5 where the interval was only 18.87 hours. A maximum fertility of 75 per cent was observed in group 4 while the kidding percentage was greatest in group 2. There appeared to be no beneficial effect of superovulation on the number of kids produced. Gestation length was similar in all the groups.

Estrus synchronization and fertility behavior in Black Bengal goats following either progesterone or prostaglandin treatment.

Thirty-six Black Bengal female goats were in the study. They were divided into three groups of 12 goats each. Group I served as the control, Group II was treated with progesterone, Group III was administered prostaglandin F2alpha. There was 100% estrus synchronization in the PGF2alpha treated group and 90% in the progesterone treated group. The total number of kids produced in the PGF2 alpha treated group was 15 followed by 12 in the progesterone - treated group and 6 in the control group. The gestation length was found to be similar in all three groups.
