Evaluation of Growth and Efficiency-Related Traits of Different Levels of Boer X Central Highland Crossbred Goats

The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth and efficiency-related traits Boer x Central Highland goats. Besides, genetic non-genetic factors affecting (Kleiber ratios) were identified. Data collected for nine years a general linear model procedure SAS employed detect significance fixed effects. overall least-squares mean live weight at birth, 3-, 6-, 9- 12 months age 2.52±0.01, 9.81±0.13, 13.8±0.15, 17.8±0.19, 20.5±0.29 kg, respectively. average gains from birth 3 months, 6, 6 9 80.3, 37.5, 41.9, 31.2 g day-1, Exotic gene level, dam genotype, type, season year kidding had significant effect on traits. Kleiber ratio month yearling 13.99±0.11, 5.23±0.14, 4.66±0.16, 2.95±0.18 g/kg0.75, Parity, blood influence expression in different phases. In terms performance traits, F2 F3 crossbreds did not show any benefit over F1 crossbreds. Furthermore, increasing level above 50% would be meaningless under existing minimal input production system. Therefore, besides improving management goats, producing first filial generation ideal medium high systems.
