Abstract
Fattening should be understood as intensive feeding of animals intended for slaughter for a relatively short time, which ensures an increase in live weight and fat deposition in the body, as a result of which meat productivity sharply increases and meat quality improves. Currently, it is necessary that meat, in addition to its attractive appearance, has the amount of fat and the maximum amount of full-fledged and essential proteins. Therefore, in most countries of the world, lamb production is based mainly on the cultivation and fattening of young animals, which successfully combines two processes – growth and fattening, that is, increasing the amount of their own meat (muscle tissue) and simultaneous deposition of fat on internal organs, inside and between muscles, as well as on the surface of the carcass
