- Abstract
The aim of this study was to increased of the litter size and reproduction performance with superovulation and artificial insemination treatments. The results obtained who performed estrus synchronization in ewes with the percentage of estrus occurring were 100%; 90.8% and 92%, respectively, Based on the data, it could be seen that the treatment of gonadotropin hormone in sheep gave estrus effect to all ewes in the study. The results showed that almost all ewes that were treated three times showed good estrus responses, indicated by the emergence of all parameters. Of all the ewes treated with gonadotropin hormones showed that pregnancy. This indicates a positive response to the given hormone. Gonadotropin hormone will stimulate ovulation in the treated ewes. Based on the results of the study, it was obtained that 9 ewes were pregnant with twins of 26 pregnant ewes. The low rate of twin pregnancy was caused by the follicular maturation process not followed by sufficient secretion of LH, so that superovulation did not occur in all treated ewes.
