- 125 Lactation in Improved Awassi sheep
In recent years, the commercial Awassi flocks in Israel have weaned their lambs once the lamb has received colostrum from the ewe and so are ideal for studying the complete lactation curves of sheep, under commercial conditions.
- TABLE 4
Fleece colour varies from brown to white It is estimated there are 400,000 Awassi/Merino cross ewes in WA Australian Total: 400,000 Damara This breed began being imported from South Africa in the1990s, again initially into WA.It is a fat tail sheep with.
- The Yield and Composition of Milk in Sarda, Awassi, and Merino
We compared milk yield and composition to test the hypothesis that the Sarda and Awassi breed, which are highly selected for milk production, would be less affected by changes in the frequency to verify if the variation in milking frequency resulted in.
- Genetic evaluation of growth performance in Awassi sheep
In the ongoing project on "Genetic Selection for Milk Yield in Awassi Sheep" candidate rams are being tested using AI.Growth performance of the progeny of the tested rams were recorded.
- PROGENY TESTING FOR MILK YIELD IN TURKISH AWASSI SHEEP
kg in 1997, presumably due to the routine screening of the population, the ongoing genetic selection programme as well as the outcrossing effect of the Israeli Awassis introduced to the population in 1977 and 1992.
