摘要: The genetically diverse dairy sheep flocks in North Africa, the Northern and Central European plains, Balkan countries, Turkey, Middle East, Iran Afghanistan, countries of northern Mediterranean basin, Southeast Asia vary their management. This may be attributed to centuries tradition based on religious rituals cultural heritage, socioeconomic constraints; (in conjunction with) topography; climatic condition; availability pasture, stored feed for winter spring months, forage from irrigated pastures, concentrates, human resources; access roads markets; degree mechanization; attack predators. In milk collected a large number small under transhumance system is processed into high-quality cheese specialty market. Shortage labor farms due rural exodus was overcome by mechanized milking specialized equipment parlors change traditional management highly intensive type new husbandry procedures productive sheep. lactation pattern can modified manipulating dietary supply energy protein during pregnancy lactation. feeding protocols developed are balancing daily nutrient requirements sustain yield, which driven demand products. this article, extensive systems production including accelerated lambing controlled environment have been described. Potential genetic improvement among breeds associated with wide range rearing complex presents challenge. Technologies cow being applied farm, collection, processing, commercialization
