Abstract

The research has been conducted on “Agroholding” sheep farm, where 860 heads of sheep are bred, 66 % of which are Armenian semi-coarse-wool breed and 34 % are other breeds. Sheep bonitation has been conducted according to their breed, age and productivity characteristics. To improve the qualitative composition of the animal stock, breeding and selection works should be continuously implemented on the mentioned farm. It is recommended to apply such breeding technology which would enable to improve not only the breed’s qualitative composition but also to increase both milk and meat productivity.
