dc.description.abstractInterest in goat farming is at its peak since the last decade of 20th century because the role of goat iswell established in animal protein as well as in economic uplift of poor masses in the tropics andsubtropics, but also constitutes an important component of traditional farming systems. Goat is abetter option as farm animal in the tropics and subtropics as it can withstand dehydration and hasbetter browsing habit which enables it to survive where cattle and sheep farming is difficult.Reproductive performance of does is of immense importance as contributing factor towardsincreased meat production and in finding out more prolific animals. This is the main factor affectingproductivity of goats. Therefore, an improved reproduction rate will be an approach to increase innumbers. Reproductive seasonality represents a natural adaptation that provides importantadvantages for birth and offspring survival and development, as lambing/kidding coincides withgood weather and maximum availability of forage. It is believed that photoperiod is theenvironmental factor other than food availability that determines the sexual activity in sheep andgoat. This review paper focuses on the general aspects of seasonal factors influencing the goat’s reproductive efficiency.
