MORPHOLOGICAL COMPOSITION AND PHYSICOCHEMICAL INDICATORS OF BARANCH MEAT OF THE DAGESTAN ROCK BREED AND THEIR MIXTURES
The production of young lamb is of great importance in increasing the profitability of sheep breeding. The slaughter of lambs in the year of birth is most effective, since during this period of life the process of deposition of animal protein, which is the most valuable component of meat, takes place. In the total volume of marketable products of sheep breeding in Dagestan, more than 90 % is meat productivity, which determines the efficiency of the industry. The article presents data on the amino acid composition and amino acid rate of ram meat obtained from the crossing of Dagestan rock queens with Russian meat merino rams. Experimental studies were carried out in the conditions of the Agrofirm "Sogratl" on ewes of the Dagestan rock.
