The kazakh bactrian camel of the dairy product direction

Abstract

The Kazakh Bactrian is a planned breed in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Of particular interest are the Kazakh Bactrians of the South Kazakhstan type of dairy productivity. Comprehensive assessment of the productive characteristics of camels was carried out according to the instructions for the assessment of camels. The camels of the Kazakh Bactrian of the South Kazakhstan type have uniform sandy (40%), white (25%) and brown (35%) color, thick skin, the yield of pure fiber from the total trimmed wool is 95.0%. Preliminary data indicate that the sandy camel is more precocious in comparison with the peers of the white and brown color. Camels at birth have a live weight of 32.3-34.5 kg. The absolute increase in live weight was at the age of 6 months - 118-124,4 kg. It has been established that the growth and development of camels in the dairy period directly depend on the feeding conditions. One of the peculiarities of feeding the camel of the Kazakh Baktrian of the South Kazakhstan type is that up to 3 months of age mother's milk is the main source of nutrition. This is due to the fact that in the period of30-40 days of age, the limbs of a camel are longer than their neck. In this period of life they cannot use pasture. In our example, in the period from birth to 8 months, the proportion of milk was high - ranging from 47.6% to 53.28%, and in the period from birth to 3 months - ranging from 69.47% to 71, 53%. It was also revealed that camel cups with an udder cup shape (6.4 ± 0.11 kg) produce significantly more milk in comparison with camel mattes with a round (5.6 ± 0.17 kg), flat (4.5 ± 0.28 kg ) and lobular (4.7 ± 0.15 kg) forms of the udder.
