Synhronization is the technique where a large number of female mammals, particularly, ruminants may be brought to cycle, ovulate, conceive and give birth nearly at the same time; therefore, it renders management economical, particularly, in technological farming. Prostaglandin synchronization may be employed successfully in goats, however, it has been found to require planned artificial insemination. It has been found to affect, adversely, the multiovulatory characteristic of the breed of the goat under study. It is also shown that the synchronization of a cycle may continue in the subsequent cycles, thus synchronization once could be exploited for several subsequent cycles and pregnancies through planned management. This approach could maintain multiple birth characteristic of the goat and provides economical management in gestation, kidding and location of large commercial herds. It is also found that trend of maternal body weight increase in gestation may be used as indicator of multiple births and supplementation may be worked out economically.
