Improving the efficiency of reproduction and breeding in alpacas
28 pages
Published: 2 Jul 2002
Author(s): Jane Vaughan
ISBN: 0-642-58496-6
This report presents new information on ovarian follicular wave characteristics in non-pregnant female alpacas and introduces a practical protocol based on progesterone to control ovarian follicular growth. The protocol allows for fixed-time mating. The Australian alpaca industry will benefit from more efficient utilisation of genetically superior males and females and faster dissemination of improved genotypes throughout the national herd.
