Dalam upaya pengembangan populasi, maka faktor aktifitas reproduksi induk perlu mendapat perhatian. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui potensi reproduksi induk kambing Lakor di Kecamatan Lakor Kabupaten Maluku Barat Daya. Metode survei digunakan dalam penelitian ini, dengan wawancara terhadap total sebanyak 30 responden dari 3 desa sampel yaitu Yamluli, Sera, dan Letoda. Penentuan desa sampel dan responden peternak dipilih secara pusposive sampling. Potensi reproduksi induk kambing Lakor yang diamati dalam penelitian ini antara lain: umur kawin pertama, angka kebuntingan, litter size, tipe kelahiran, nisbah kelamin, kawin pasca partus, selang beranak, dan mortalitas pra sapih. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan umur kawin pertama kambing Lakor 8,89 ± 0,74 bulan, Angka kebuntingan induk kambing lakor 86,08%, rataan litter size yaitu 1,91 bulan, tipe kelahiran lebih banyak induk beranak kembar dua 73,78% , jumlah anak yang dilahirkan dari induk kambing Lakor lebih banyak anak betina daripada anak jantan, kawin pasca partus induk kambing lakor masih dalam kisaran normal yaitu 4,16 ± 0,53 bulan, selang beranak cukup panjang yaitu 9,21 ± 0,54 bulan, dan mortalitas pra sapih pada anak kambing sebesar 5,56%. Dapat disimpulkan potensi reproduksi induk kambing Lakor dikategorikan baik dilihat dari besar liter yang didapatkan dari tipe kelahiran kembar dan kemampuan beranak yang cukup tinggi.

In an effort to develop the population, the parental reproductive activity factor needs attention. This study aims to determine the reproductive potential of Lakor goats in Lakor District, Southwest Maluku Regency. The survey method was used in this study, with interviews with a total of 30 respondents from 3 sample villages, namely Yamluli, Sera, and Letoda. Determination of sample villages and farmer respondents were selected by purposive sampling. The reproductive potential of Lakor goats observed in this study included: age at first mating, pregnancy rate, litter size, birth type, sex ratio, postpartum mating, calving interval, and pre-weaning mortality. The results showed that the first mating age of the Lakor goat was 8.89 ± 0.74 months, the pregnancy rate for the Lakor goat was 86.08%, the average litter size was 1.91 months, the type of birth was more than the mother with twins 73.78%, the number of There are more female children born to Lakor goats than male children, postpartum mating to Lakor goats is still in the normal range of 4.16 ± 0.53 months, the calving interval is quite long, 9.21 ± 0.54 months, and pre-weaning mortality in goats was 5.56%. It can be concluded that the reproductive potential of the Lakor goats is categorized as good in terms of the liters obtained from the type of twin birth and the ability to give birth which is quite high.
