description | This research was intended to determine the fattening performance and
carcass characteristics of Akkaraman male lambs fattened under traditional
system and intensive fattening system.
Each treatment groups (traditional system I, control, traditional system
II) contained 20 Akkaraman male lambs and experiment lasted 70 days. Initial
and final body weights of lambs were 32.47, 38.07, 37.73; 46.08,
53.26, 46.87 kg for traditional system I, control, traditional system
II, respectively. Daily weight gains were 0.190, 0.220, 0.200 kg, and
amounts of forage and concentrate feed consumed per 1 kg weight gain
were 4.995, 5.045, 3.715 kg; and
4.165, 4.436, 5.710 kg for traditional system I, control, traditional
system II, respectively. Amounts of daily concentrate and forage consumption
were 0.999, 1.110, 0.743 kg; and 0.833, 0.976, 1.142 kg for
traditional system I, control, traditional system II, respectively. Hot
carcass, cold carcass weights and dressing percentages were 22.18,
24.68, 22.77 kg (P<0.05); 21.72, 24.18, 22.32 kg (P<0.05);
and 0.48, 0.50, 0.50 % (P<0.05) for traditional system I, control,
traditional system II, respectively. Some carcass characteristics obtained from
experiment were as follows; 51.34, 52.44, 52.56 % for meat in carcass, 14.19,
13.85, 13.26 % for fat in whole carcass, 19.74, 18.26, 18.69 % for bone in
carcass, 8.03, 8.49, 8.62 % for fat in tail, 0.63, 0.37, 0.35 % (P<0.01) for
fat on kidney, 0.52, 0.41, 0.59 for internal fat, 27.00, 26.84, 27,41 % for
leg, 15.99, 15.69, 15.92 % for foreleg, 4.91, 4.88, 5.09 % for back, 4.85,
5.37, 4.87 % for loin, 24.68, 24.66, 24.21 for others, respectively. In
conclusion, even though traditional sheep raisers claimed that they fatten very
well, it was observed that nutrient requirement of animal was not met under
traditional fattening system. Fattening period lasted long because adaptation
period to concentrate feed was very long. Control group performed better
compared with other groups. |
