摘要: AbstractAccelerated lambing system is heavily reliant on reproductive technologies meant to enable off the season breeding in sheep. Therefore, present study was programmed assess effect of (BS) fertility sheep following estrus synchronization (ES) and fixed time artificial insemination (FTAI). A total 248 365 ewes were synchronized inseminated during BS (Febuary–March July–September) non-breeding (NBS) respectively, 2012–14. Synchronization done by AVIKESIL-S, intra-vaginal progesterone sponges kept situ vagina for 12 days. 200 IU eCG administered intramuscularly 12th day after sponge withdrawal. FTAI performed twice exhibiting signs at 48 56h removal, using liquid chilled semen Patanwadi/Malpura rams containing 100 million sperm. Breeding had no significant (p<0.05) synchronization. The estrous responses NBS 84.68% 8...
