Meat Productivity of Kalmyk bull calves with various cultivation technologies in the conditions Of Agrofirma Uralan Llc in the Priyutnensky district of the Republic of Kalmykia

Abstract

Beef productivity and quality are determined by a number of factors, including the breed characteristics of animals, and it is closely related to the biological patterns of their growth and development. Taking into account the patterns affecting meat productivity makes it possible to efficiently raise and fatten livestock and produce beef. Beef is the main branch of meat production in our country. The problem of beef production can be solved with the development of specialized beef cattle breeding. Currently, beef cattle breeding is conducted on an extensive basis due to a weak feed base. One of the domestic breeds of beef cattle is the Kalmyk breed. In advanced farms, with intensive cultivation, Kalmyk bull calves weigh up to 420 kg or more by the age of 18 months. The slaughter yield is 62%.Many researchers note that beef production and its genetic potential depend on the effective use of technology for rearing and fattening young animals. Using effective technologies for growing and fattening young animals, Beef production can be increased. For the production of meat in our country, cattle are fattened and foraged. The cost of meat depends on the proper organization of livestock fattening. Livestock feeding is carried out on natural pastures. When feeding livestock, it is possible to obtain high gains in live weight at the lowest cost. During the feeding period, the average daily gains in animals are 800-900 g.
