Abstract

The variety of natural and economic conditions of different sheep breeding areas is important. The better a particular breed of sheep is adapted to breeding under certain conditions, the greater the economic efficiency of its breeding. The present study is aimed at studying and establishing the relationship between economically useful selected traits. The study was conducted on sheep of the Kyrgyz mountain merino, Alai semirough-haired and local rough-haired sheep in the conditions of southern Kyrgyzstan. The analysis and methods of variation statistics of digital data were used in the study. The external phenotypic indicators, body weight and wool productivity were used
