DYNAMICS OF WEIGHT AND GROWTH RATES OF YOUNG STOCK OF DIFFERENT ORIGINS

Abstract

The article highlights the relevance of studying the dynamics of live weight and growth rates of young sheep of different genetic origins under the conditions of modern meat sheep production development. It has been established that the intensity of growth in young animals is one of the key indicators of precocity, meat productivity, and the efficiency of selection and breeding work. The relevance of the research is determined by the need to increase sheep productivity through the use of crossbreeding and the selection of genotypes with a high growth and development potential.
