The article provides a convincing argument for the preference of wool and fur products over artificial and synthetic textile fibers. It is noted that artificial fibers and synthetics have negative ionization, while natural wool has positive ionization. It is emphasized that negative ionization is far from harmless to humans. The analysis of the state of sheep breeding in the Russian Federation is given and this industry in the Rostov region is characterized against this background. The data on the number and productivity of sheep of the main age and sex groups, the production of young animals per one hundred ewes are presented. The characteristic of tribal resources of the country and region is given. The breeding base of the industry in the Russian Federation is represented by 205 breeding organizations, including 3 breeding and genetic centers, 44 breeding plants, 145 breeding reproducers and 13 gene pool farms, which contain 1389.8 thousand sheep (39.0 % of their total number in agricultural organizations and 6.6 % of the sheep population in farms of all categories), including 904.7 thousand Queens (35.0 and 6.2%, respectively). The breeding base of the Rostov region has eleven farms, of which 6 breeding plants for such breeds as the Soviet Merino and salskaya and 5 breeding reproducers. In addition to these breed resources, there are breeding reproducers for the qigai and edilbaev breeds in the region. Total number of breeding sheep in the region is almost 44 thousand. The article indicates main problems in the development of the industry and ways and means to solve them
The article researches a question of effective using of meat of sheep and chicken meat for increasing of product list
Improvement of domestic breeds of Merino sheep remains an important task. The reorientation of the industry to wool-meat and meat-wool direction of productivity can contribute to the restoration of domestic sheep breeding. An example of such conversion is a relatively young breed called Dzhalginsky Merino, created in the Stavropol region on the basis of the Stavropol breed with the involvement of resources of domestic and world breeding. In the current situation, it seems relevant to use Dzhalginsky Merino, in order to improve the meat and wool qualities of sheep of domestic fine-wool breeds. Obtaining a new genetic combination of animals, formed by combining the genotypes of breeds Salsky, Stavropol and Dzhalginsky Merino will increase the efficiency of the industry in a market economy and will provide a more complete use of the productive potential of the breed. The results of studies on obtaining and use of animals, new genetic combinations of a wool – meat direction of productivity, with high energy of growth, meat and wool productivity, improves the efficiency of Merino sheep are an important theoretical justification for making a contribution to zootechnical science, with the aim of improving fine-wool breeds of sheep and can be used in practical work in the production of high quality lamb
The article presents a comparative assessment of the meat productivity of young cattle of the two most common intensive meat breeds in the Russian Federation (Aberdeen Angus and Hereford) in comparison with the most numerous native in the South of the country domestic breed, which is Kalmyk. Intensive rearing from 9 to 18 months of age was carried out in the conditions of industrial fattening complex on rations not containing juicy forages. In the process of 273-day intensive rearing, in bulls of the tested breeds average daily live weight gains from 1455 to 1526 grams were achieved. During this period, an absolute increase was obtained in Aberdeen-Angus bulls-416.6 kg, in peers of Hereford and Kalmyk breeds-413.6 and 397.2 kg. The highest pre-slaughter live weight and slaughter rates were noted in Aberdeen-Angus bulls, having a yield of a pair carcass of 59.4 % and a slaughter yield of 62.8 %. The meat of Aberdeen-Angus bulls has the highest content of fat and dry matter, but they have less protein, lower pH and moisture binding capacity and a higher loss of meat juice during cooking, compared with the bulls of the Kalmyk breed. It was confirmed that the coefficients of transformation of protein and energy into products are closely related to the intensity of growth and weight of the carcass. The most effective of these indicators were in bulls of Aberdeen-Angus, then Hereford and Kalmyk breeds. A similar pattern between the breeds was manifested in terms of profitability and cost recovery
The article contains the experience of the development
of the methodology and the computer program for
calculation of regional and local systems of pigs
hybridization at the example of the Rostov region
(Russia). Crossing the GP lines for F1 should be
organized in multiplier farm, which may be separate
farms and to be part of large commercial farms. For
the production of F1 in a multiplier farm, we must
breed a purebred specialized paternal and a maternal
line, selected on the effect of combining ability. For
the successful functioning of the system of
hybridization, it is necessary to build a genetic
pyramid, including breeding and genetic centers
(nucleus farm), multiplier farm, reproducing the
baseline. The article gives a detailed calculation of sow
population of levels of P, GP, GGP for maternal and
paternal breeds of pigs. The program uses user-defined
parameters of pigs productivity, of the simulated
population, and the parameters characterizing the
intensity of selection of young animals. To ensure
annual production of 1,822 million pigs in the Rostov
region it is necessary to provide the availability of
brood stock in the amount of 89 thousand heads, 6 800
heads in the structure of grandparent flocks (GP), 730 heads in the structure of the Grand-Grand-parent stock
(GGP), excluding sows second maternal and paternal
breeds
Diagnosis by PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain reaction –
polymorphism of the lengths of restriction fragments)
is the standard analysis of point mutations for the
diagnosis of allelic polymorphism of candidate genes
related with productive qualities of farm animals.
Along the length of the fragments (RFLP) make a
conclusion about the absence or presence of the point
mutation, and homozygosity or heterozygosity of the
individual. The aim of our work was the optimization
of protocols for conducting PCR-RFLP analysis for
genotyping sheep for genes of the growth hormone
gene differential growth factor and gene of calpastatin
The study of the productive qualities of crossbred
offspring from different breeding combinations and
identifying the most effective ones providing the
maximum increase in the production of high quality
lamb while reducing its cost is an important problem
and is essential for further development of methods of
creating a new type of precocious meat and wool
sheep. In the Rostov region in the result of the
establishment of populations of meat-wool sheep there
are several groups of animals with different
characteristics and hereditary inclinations. As the base
of the work there is a method of mating and breeding
of sheep of the desired type. The article presents the
results of one of the fragments of a large complex
work in which the possibility of using three-pedigree
hybrids, created with the involvement of potential
salskaya, edilbaevskaya and intense meat-wool breed,
which is severokavkazskaya, to improve productive
quality in the breeding of sheep. We have evaluated
productivity and biological features of hybrids and
proved the economic efficiency of their use in the
production of mutton. We have given the results of the
control slaughter and assessment of qualitative
indicators of the meat of young sheep. The set of
indicators characterizing meat productivity and meat
quality revealed that the superiority of the studied
indicators remained for two - and three-bred cross
cattle. Hybrids have a higher rate of growth and
quality parameters of meat productivity. These options
are simple and complex industrial crossing are
promising and can be implemented and used on the
farms of the zone of breeding Merino sheep. Thus, the
use of crossbreeding gives an opportunity to convert a
flock of sheep in the desired direction quickly. At the
same time, three-pedigree hybrids better combine the
valuable qualities of the used species
In the article we have studied the influence of breeding Stavropol Rams breed and Australian meat merino for increase a wool productivity at offspring received from crossing with Soviet merino females
The article presents the results of the qualitative
assessment of meat of crossbred rams. The analysis of
the data shows that crossbred rams of 2, 3 and 4
groups increased the absolute mass of muscle tissue
compared with purebred 12.3; of 18.2 and 25.6%,
respectively. Fine-wooled rams were superior in the
relative content of bone in carcasses of crossbred 1.1-
4.2 percent. Output of pulp for 1 kg of bones had the
advantage of crossbred rams 2, 3 and 4 groups
compared with purebred 0.12; 0.24 percent and 0.44
kg respectively. The analysis of the data shows that in
carcasses of young animals of all the groups the
greatest specific weight took cuts of the 1st sort.
Nevertheless, the valuable parts to carcass weight
balance was higher in the carcasses of the crossbred
calves. So, rams 2, 3 and 4 groups, this advantage was
1.9; 4.5 and 4.7%, respectively. Thus, the analysis of a
complex of indicators characterizing the quality of
meat rams of different genotypes revealed that the
superiority for the studied indices took place for two -
and three-bred animals. These options of both simple
and complex industrial crossing are promising and can
be implemented and used in the farms of Merino and
crossbred sheep
The article deals with the issue of improving the
profitability of sheep breeding by using improved
mutant genotypes in the breeding system. The results
of studies of the main indicators of economic-useful
traits are given, the dynamics of growth, level and
quality of wool productivity of sheep of improved
genotypes obtained on the basis of such breeds as
Soviet merino and Stavropolskaya, as well as firstgeneration
daughters cultivated in themselves are
estimated. It was found that at birth, the live weight in
the groups of the 3 group (the breeding of half-blooded
hybrids "in oneself") was higher than that of the
females from the 1 and 2 groups, respectively, by 0.50
kg, or 13.1%, and by 0.20 kg or 5.2% (P> 0.95). At a
more senior age, the young, having a large live mass at
birth, retained its rank position. The highest indicator
of the cutting of physical wool was observed in animals
of the 2 group, obtained as a result of the use of sheepproducers
of Stavropolskaya breed on sheep of the
Soviet merino. The parameters of the 1 and 3 group
were lower by 0.6 kg - 12.3% and 0.17 kg - 3.5% (P>
0.95), respectively. The conclusion is made that the use
of sheep-producers of the Stavropolskaya breed on the
uterus of the Soviet merinos breed had a positive effect
on the wool productivity and the live weight of the
hybrid offspring. Further breeding of half-blooded
hybrids “in oneself” showed the possibility of
reproducing improved genotypes without losing the
acquired qualities
