Study of Productivity Indicators of Saanen Goats
Abstract
The experiments were carried out in the breeding goat farm of "BMS Agro" LLC, Aghjabedi region of the Republic of Azerbaijan. The results of the study show that the use of Saanen dairy goats to improve the milk production and milk quality. The goat breeding helps to significantly increase the milk production of local goat breeds. The milk yield of purebred goats are breeding on the farm is 4.05, the milk yield of hybrid goats is 885 kg on average, and the milk yield of hybrid goats with 4.15% fat is 708 and 453 kg, respectively, more than local goats. Lactation yield is 177 kg of milk with a fat content of 4.37%. The results of the study show that the breeding value of Saanen goats is high. It is appropriate to use these breeds to increase the milk and meat productivity of local goat breeds.
