Characteristic of wool fibers of different gender and age groups of sheep of desirable type

The aim of the research was to conduct laboratory studies of physical and technical properties of the wool of semi-coarse-grained hybrid sheep of desired type, bred in the Republic of Khakassia. The objects of the study were all gender and age groups of crossbred sheep produced meat and wool teams responsible to develop the requirements for the breeding of semi-coarse-grained sheep in the conditions of Khakassia. Laboratory studies of basic qualities of wool of all sex-age groups of sheep of the new genotype were carried out. To characterize the quality of the wool 15 samples were selected from the animals of each sex-age group. The study of wool productivity was carried out on the basis of the results of boning and the data on the ac-count of wool clipping. The study of the wool fineness was conducted in the laboratory of the Institute of Agrar-ian Problems of Khakassia on the device Lanotester-2. Shearing raw wool was taken into account at the time of shearing individually by each animal to the nearest 0...
