GENETIC PECULIARITIES OF SYMMENTAL LIVESTOCK DROPPED OFF INTO FARMS OF THE KRASNODAR REGION
Farms of Krasnodar region purchase cattle of milk, combined and meat direction of productivity. Imported cattle are accompanied with documents which differ from analogous ones specified in such cases by pedigree service of Russia. There were studied 1000 heads of symmental cattle of milk-meat direction of productivity imported from Austria. More than 5000 kg of milk can be obtained from cattle of symmental breed of milk-meat direction of productivity, except it they show enough high meat productivity. The analysis of accompanying documents on purchased cattle is joined not only with language barrier but with the lack of knowledge of adopted abbreviations, contractions and other attributes used by foreign breeders abroad. Having studied the accompanying documents connected with hereditary information of purchased cattle there was determined that imported heifers and their mothers were obtained in Austria, and mothers of bulls on 55,5% obtained in Austria and 41,6% in Germany. So, on formation of imported micropopulation of cattle greatly influenced the breeding school of Germany. In accordance with the adopted classification in Austria due to revealed cases of adoption of Holstein blood, there is a ground to consider the present herd as a belonging to the group of pure breed of symmental cattle and in prospect to conduct the mating of cattle with pure breed symmental oxen with the aim of absorption of mixtures of Holstein blood in pedigree. The researches determined that one can purchase the producers with characteristics of milk productivity at daughters of oxen not lower than Austrian indexes on voluminous milking and German - on milk quality, the purchase of symmental cattle from other countries must be subjected to this demand.
