DESCRIPTION OF BREEDS
HOLSTEIN FRISIAN BREED
The birthplace of this breed of cows is considered to be Holland, or rather, Friesland — the birthplace of the Frisians. There animal production has long been practiced, so the Frisian cows were hardy and had a good immune system.
In similar climatic conditions — in the North of Germany, on the lands of Schleswig-Holstein — German breeders bred dairy cows that showed high milk yields.
At the beginning of the XVIII century, the cattlemen of these two regions decided to breed a new breed — dairy and meat. So there was a Holstein Frisian cow of black and white color.
Holstein cows have a wide, voluminous udder and slightly developed muscles. The rate of milk flow in these cows is at least 2.5 kg/min and often exceeds 3 kg/min.

ETTI MERINO
(Authors of the breed: Almaty Plemzavod Agricultural Production Cooperative, S. M. Saryev farm, Arai farm)
Work on developing the breed was started in the 1980s in Almaty region. Using Polvars sheep, Sarybulak intra-breed type of Kazakh fine-wool sheep was created, the main difference of which was the large size, big body weight and big amount of wool shorn. But, as it turned out, a big weight is not a sufficient sign of meat animals, so in 2002, German Merinofleischschaf sheep were imported from Germany for breeding.
As a result of many years of work in 2011, a new domestic fine-wool meat breed — Etti Merino was developed and successfully tested.
CHARACTERISTIC OF THE BREED. Sheep are perfectly adapted to the harsh desert conditions throughout the year. Lambs are characterized by a high growth rate; they wean at the age of 4-4. 5 months. Rams reach 35-40kg of body weight (max 50kg).
ZONE OF BREEDING. Meat Merinos animals perfectly tolerate low temperatures of winter pasture and are well adapted to the natural and climatic conditions of Almaty, Zhambyl and South Kazakhstan regions.
LEADING BREEDING FARMS: Etti Merino animals are bred in 16 farms of Almaty region, in total, these enterprises contain 62,768 animals, 44,461 of them sheep.
Leading among them is Almaty Plemzavod Agricultural Production Cooperative, where there are 12 thousand animals, including about 10,000 sheep.
To increase the meat content and reduce the fat tissue, Ile de France French Meat Merino stud rams are used, which were first imported to Almaty Plemzavod Agricultural Production Cooperative.
They are called the best thin-wool meat breed. It is a fast-growing breed of sheep with a well-muscled carcass, which is widely used in France for intensive off-season production of lambs, and for the production of pasture lambs from early spring lambing.
