The objective of the study was to know the effect of phosphorus on the reproductive performance, growth and onset of puberty of female pre - pubertal and pubertal alpacas in two important stages of production, such as the breeding season (January to February) and weaning ( August September). In the first stage of the study, blood levels of phosphorus were determined in 200 female alpacas of approximately 11-13 months of age located in four regions of greater importance for alpacas breeding in Perú. Levels of 8.25 ± 0.23, 5.25 ± 0.12, 6.42 ± 0.16, 4.8 ± 0.14 mg / dl were found for Cerro de Pasco, Junín, Cuzco and Puno regions, respectively. Significant differences (P <0.05) were found among the four regions, and these data were compared with the expected range for alpacas (Van Saun , 2014) (5-11.5 mg/dl). In a second part of the study, a controlled experiment with different concentrations of phosphorus in the diet was performed: 0.16% (T1), 0.25% (T2), and 0.34% (T3). Forty-eigth female alpacas post weaning (25.24 ± 0.17 kg) were used, with ad libitum feeding, with 16 animals per treatment housed in individual pens for a period of 7 months and ages range from seven to eight months. There was a phosphorus effect (p <0.05) on the majority of variables evaluated as live weight, body condition when the levels in the diets were 0.25 and 0.34%. Dry matter intake expressed in kg / day was 0.71 ± 0.01, 0.82 ± 0.01 and 0.96 ± 0.02 while, as a percentage of live weight it was 2.07, 2.24 and 2.60 for treatments T1, T2 and T3 respectively. The reproductive variables such as pre ovulatory follicle size, embryonic mortality, ovulation rate and puberty were improved when the diets contained 0.25 and 0.34% phosphorus. It is likely that low dietary phosphorus in T1 may have had an influence on the variables evaluated especially on puberty. It is concluded that diets with 0.25 and 0.34% phosphorus have a positive effect on growth, puberty and some reproductive parameters.
