Abstract

Aim. Study of the class composition, indicators of meat and wool productivity of the sheep of the Volgograd breed in the APC breeding plant «Pallasovskiy» and APC breeding plant «Red Оctober» of the Pallasovsky district of the Volgograd region. Materials and Methods. The material of the study was the quantitative and qualitative indicators of productivity and selection and breeding work in breeding organizations for breeding sheep and goats of various breeds, except for Karakul (breeding farm card) for 2015-2019 and a report on the results of sheep grading for 2019 provided by the APC breeding plant «Pallasovsky» and the APC breeding plant «Red Оctober» of the Pallasovsky district of the Volgograd region.

The av-erage live weight and shear of wool in pure fiber of tupping rams in the APC breeding plant «Pal-lasovsky» was 99.2 and 5.28 kg, repair rams – 80 and 3 kg, ewes – 56.8 and 2.3 kg, young ewes – 45 and 1.8 kg, in the APC breeding plant «Red October» – 104.3 and 5.76 kg, 73.68 kg, 57.18 and 2.2 kg, 44.58 and 2.16 kg, respectively.

A similar indicator in the APC breeding plant «Red October» was 1788, 1815, 4312 and 2392 heads, respectively. Conclusion. Pedigree and productive indicators in these breeding farms meet the minimum require-ments and slightly exceeded them. Therefore, we recommend raising and selling breeding animals to improve the productive and breeding qualities in commercial enterprises.
