ABSTRACT
Control of the estrous cycle through estrus synchronization protocols allows the producer to share lotsof females according to the management capacity and ownership of facilities easier handling and better use ofplayers. Therefore, the objective was to verify the influence of artificial insemination in fixed time (FTAI) withthe use of frozen semen in pregnancy rates of dairy goats. The study was conducted in the state of Pará, in themunicipality of Iguarapé-Acu, in a private property that is located in the northeastern region of Pará. 12 Saanengoats intended for milk production were used. Animals submitted to TAI with the use of six frozen semen becamepregnant, representing a pregnancy rate of 50%, which proved satisfactory results.(AU)
