Abstract

The results of studies of the productivity and interior of young cattle of the Charolais breed fattened in CJSC Firm of Agrocomplex named after N.I. Tkachev, Vyselkovsky district, Krasnodar Territory. With a live weight before slaughter of 560.4 ± 16.7 kg, carcasses with a slaughter yield of 68.0% were distinguished by high rates of meat: the yield of boneless beef for baby food was 81.0%. At the age of 18 months animals had the highest content of total protein in the blood serum. In comparison with 12-month-old, bulls of 18 months old sowed higher live weight values, as well as higher albumin fraction indicators. The same trend was observed for the protein index (Albumin/Globulin - A/G) - an indicator of the state of protein metabolism (0.72 - at 12 months and 1.23 - at 18 months). An increase of 3.8% in the amount of lysozyme in the blood serum of bulls at the age of 18 months was established. compared to 12 months. (p<0.05).
