The genetic and phenotypic correlations among 1 month body weight (W1), 3 months body weight (W3), 6 months body weight (W6), 9 months body weight (W9), 12 months body weight (W12), age at maturity (AM), age at first kidding (AFK), prolificacy (PROL.), first service period (FSP) and first kidding interval (FKI) were estimated for Sangamneri goat. The positive and significant association amongst growth traits and negative and significant association amongst growth and reproduction traits indicate that the early stage body weights especially body weight at weaning stage can be considered for selection of animals to enhance the growth and reproduction traits.
