Abstract excerpt

This study aimed to assess the possibility of developing a dairy population of Akkaraman sheep following a long-term within-breed phenotypic selection program in semi-arid conditions in Türkiye. The study was conducted at Gözlü State Farm between 2012 and 2023 (12 years), covering approximately 3-4 generations, and included milk yield records from 6,822 purebred Akkaraman ewes. Milk yields were recorded on days...
