Analisis Produktivitas Kambing Etawa (PE) berdasarkan Litter Size, Tipe Kelahiran dan Mortalitas (Article Review)

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the productivity level of Etawah Cross-breed (PE) goats based on litter size, type of birth and mortality. The method of collecting data in this study was by means of literature review related to the productivity of the Etawah crossbreed goat (PE). Based on the results of the literature review, it was found that the percentage of litter size of Etawah crossbreed goat (PE) ranged from 1.06% -2.00%. The most optimal percentage of the type of birth is the type of twin births, which is 61.70%, while the highest percentage of mortality is the type of twin birth, which is 61.29%. The conclusion from this literature study research is that the productivity of the Etawah crossbreed goat is optimal in the type of birth of twins. In general, Etawah crossbreed (PE) goats in the type of twin births are able to produce a higher number of children at birth. The mortality rate for multiple births is higher than for single births. Parity and environmental conditions are factors that can affect the productivity of Etawah crossbreed (PE) goats.
