SELECTION IN DOWNY AND DAIRY GOAT BREEDING
The article contains materials on the breeding of different genotypes of downy and dairy goats and on the characteristics of their productive characteristics. The purpose of this research work is to develop ways and methods of conservation and use of the genetic resources of goats in Kyrgyzstan. The analysis of data on the use in the introductory cross of goat breeders of the Orenburg and Kashmir type of Mongolian breed shows that in goatskins the quality of fluff improves due to an increase in fineness and the specific weight and number of animals with a thin fluff of the "kashmir" type is equalized. According to the brood stock of Kyrgyz dairy-type goats, the average daily milk yield is 1.6 liters per head, while the average yield of goats is 152.4%.
