The present study was conducted under field condition to investigate the growth performance and reproductive parameters in Black Bengal goats under Semi Intensive system of rearing. A total of 36numbers of one months old Black Bengal goat were undertaken to see the growth and reproduction performance in field condition in Noney and Haochong village in Tamenglong district of Manipur, Black Bengal goats were kept at demonstration Farm upto 2months old .After two months  all the goats were reared in two feeding regime in field condition .Out of thirtysix goats ,eighteen numbers of goats were reared under semi  intensive system   and remaining eighteen goats were reared under complete grazing . The body weight at 3,6,9,12 were recorded and reproductive performance viz, age of puberty, age of kidding were recorded as Average body weight at birth and 12^th month were recorded as 1.31\(\pm\)0.08 , 1.11\(\pm\)0.03 and 14.40\(\pm\)0.41 , 13.06\(\pm\)0.45 respectively for Treatment group and farmers practice. The growth rate was found to be higher in case of treatment group than Farmers practice but there was no significant differences in the growth rate from birth to 12 months of age during reporting period.
