Abstract
In the Transcaucasus region, the Republic of Armenia is the highest mountainous country, about 90% of its territories are located at altitudes of more than 1000 meters above sea level. On the territory of this region there are high plateaus, volcanic cones with a large abundance of streams and small rivers. With an increase of every 100 meters, the precipitation level increases by approximately 25 mm, and when reaching heights of 3,000 meters, precipitation increases to 1,000 mm per year. A feature of service horse breeding in this region is the tortuosity of most mountain roads, fairly rocky soil, steep ascents and descents, high and inaccessible passes, changes in atmospheric pressure and temperature at different altitudes during the day, frequent and sharp changes in air speed . The difficulty of raising livestock in some high-mountainous regions of Armenia is also due to the presence of landslides, screes, cliffs and glaciers, and in winter conditions, deep snow cover.
