The link between nutrition and reproduction in West African Dwarf
goats was determined with nutritional flushing at breeding. The
effects of two levels of supplement feed providing 60% and 20%,
respectively, of the estimated daily dry matter requirement of
goats on the physical body measurements, metabolic and gonadotropin
status of the does were studied. The parameters measured included
body condition score (BCS), body weight, total protein, glucose,
calcium, insulin, gonadotropins, fertility rate and prolificacy. In
addition, the reproductive implications of interactions among these
parameters were investigated. The results showed that West African
Dwarf (WAD) does responded positively to luteolytic estrus
synchronization with PGF2 and flushing with high energy/protein
supplementation for six weeks in Ghana. The probable optimum age,
BCS and body weight at mating for improved reproductive response
were 4 years, 2.0 - 2.5 and 15 -17 kg, respectively. Flushing
improved BCS, body weight and prolificacy of WAD does by 23.86%,
10.25% and 29.0% respectively. The study results also corroborated
suggestion of insulin as a possible metabolic-reproductive
hormone."
