by Gaille Abud (IGA member) and Arthur Stubbs

Foreword

This revised edition of the “Dairy Goat Manual” was compiled as a guide to current recommended dairy goat farm management practices based on observations and information gained during the course of the RIRDC project “Farming and Marketing Goat and Sheep Milk Products”.

Information contained in this Manual is provided as general advice only. For application to specific situations, professional advice should be sought.

RIRDC and its research agents have taken all reasonable steps to ensure that the information in these publications is accurate at the time of publication. Readers should ensure that they make appropriate enquiries to determine whether new information is available on the particular subject matter.

​The project was funded from RIRDC Core Funds which are provided by the Australian Government.

This report, an addition to RIRDC’s diverse range of over 1800 research publications, forms part of our New Animal Products R&D program, which aims to accelerate the development of viable new animal industries.

High Prolificacy Palas sheep, Romania

9/28/2020

1 Comment

 
​Written by Gabriel Vicovan.
Special thanks to Radu Răducu, Enciu Ana, and Vicovan Adriana for their assistance.
 
Historic
The High Prolificacy Breed Palas was formed over nine stages, during almost three decades by intricate crosses between the Romanov, Friesian, Finnish Landrace, Border Leicester, Ile de France and Palas Merino breeds. The desired type was obtained in 1989, and its genome consists of 39% genes from Romanov, 28% genes from Merinos, 16% genes from Friesian, 9% genes from Border Leicester, 6% genes from Ile de France, and 2% genes from Landrace Finnish. This population of sheep was reproductively isolated (CIR + 1,0) since 1989, and is bred at ICDCOC Palas Constanța.                       
 
Breeding area
In Dobrogea, at Research Development Institute for Sheep and Goats Breeding Palas – Constanța, there are 1,000 heads of sheep and 2,000 in another farm in the area.
 
External (morphological) characteristics
The body format of the breed is mesomorphic to dolichomorphic, with a fine, strong skeleton and correct aplomb. The head is broad, medium in size, and has a straight profile in ewes and slightly convex in rams. The ears are medium in size, worn laterally, and both sexes are hornless. The neck is suitably long, worn horizontally, and is well attached to the trunk; the trunk is long, with medium width and depth dimensions.
 
The color of the wool is white, the coat has no colored fibers, and the hair on the face and limbs are white; the wool is semi-fine, some specimens having fine wool.
 
The udder has a globular shape, of medium to large size, the nipples being suitably long, worn vertically or slightly laterally. 
Picture
​Production characters
  • Bodyweight: rams 74-76 kg; ewes 50-52 kg
  • The total average milk production exceeds 180 liters
  • Weight of wool: rams 4.2-4.6 kg; ewes 2.8-3.0 kg
  • Fiber fineness 28-30 microns
  • Weight gain of lambs during suckling 206-215 g
  • Weight gain at fattening 198-205 g
 
Reproductive characters
Prolificacy primiparous, 136-140 %
Multiparous, 150-160 %
 
Using of the breed
The new breed contributes to achieving a priority objective in the current economic context, namely, increasing meat production by producing three-stage meat hybrid lambs. The breed produces rams which, by mating with Merino-type sheep, determine the production of prolific F1 “halfbreed” hybrid ewes (in the first stage) and which, by mating with rams, from meat breeds, produce hybrids meat lambs (second stage).

​Written by Gabriel Vicovan
Special thanks to Radu Răducu, Enciu Ana, and Vicovan Adriana for their assistance.
 
Historic
The breed was formed at the Research and Development Institute for Sheep and Goats Breeding Palas – Constanța between 1975 and 1987. They were developed by crossing East Friesian (imported from Germany) and Awassi (imported from Israel) breeds with the Merino de Palas breed, followed by isolation reproductive and selection to increase milk production. The breed was homologated in 2010.
 
Currently, the Milk Breed Palas has in the genome 65% genes from two of the best milk breeds in the world – East Friesian and Awassi, with 27% of genes from Palas Merino breed raised in Dobrogea, and 8% genes from other breeds of minor importance.
Picture
Breeding area
In Dobrogea, at the Research and Development Institute for Sheep and Goats Breeding Palas – Constanța, there are 1,000 sheep, with 200 rams produced annually, to improve milk production in ewes farms located in the Dobrogea area.
 
Conservation program
The only genetic fund of the breed is found at the Research and Development Institute for Sheep and Goats Breeding Palas – Constanța. The population is structured in 12 ram families in the breeding season, proceeding the rotational mating between families.
Picture
External (morphological) characteristics
The conformation is specific to dairy sheep. A long head with a convex profile is more pronounced in males. They are hornless, the ears are large, covered with short, thick white hairs, and are carried laterally with a tail well attached to the trunk. The chest is long and deep with a small sternum prominent, while the trunk is elongated, has a trapezoidal shape, and the spine is rectilinear. The croup is relatively broad, long, and straight; the tail is thin and long, covered with white, thick short hairs. The udder is well attached, has a globular shape, is sparsely haired, with long nipples, suitably thick, directed sideways and downwards.
​
The body dimensions
  • Height at the withers is 64-66 cm in ewes,70-72 cm in rams;
  • Croup height 67-68 cm in ewes, 70-72 cm in rams;
  • Chest width 22-23 cm in ewes, 23-25 ​​cm in rams;
  • Croup width 25-27 cm in ewes, 27-29 cm in rams;
  • Chest depth 39-40 cm in ewes, 63-65 cm in rams;
  • Oblique length of the trunk 61-63 cm in ewes, 63-65 cm in rams;
  • Whistle perimeter 8-9 cm in ewes, 9-9.5 cm in rams.

Production characteristics
  • Bodyweight rams 80-90 kg; ewes 56-58 kg;
  • Lambs weight at birth 3.9-4.5 kg males, 3.5-3.8 kg females;
  • Average weaning weight 20.5-2 kg males, 17.5-18.0 kg females;
  • Wool production 3.9- 4.2 kg in rams, 3,4-3.6 kg in ewes; 
  • Fineness of wool 34 -36 microns;
  • Fiber length12-13 cm;
  • Scouring yield 55 -56%;
  • Wool color – white;           
  • Milk production – a total of 220 liters;
  • Milk milked – 150 liters;            
  • Lactation duration – 220 days.

Identification of amino acid variation in the prion protein associated with classical scrapie in Canadian dairy goats

7/9/2018

0 Comments

 
Abstract
Background
A clear association of amino acid variation in the prion protein gene (PRNP) with susceptibility and resistance to classical scrapie exists in sheep, but not in goats. In this study we examined DNA sequence variation in the PRNP of 149 animals from two scrapie-infected herds of Saanen dairy goats, and identified 6 non-synonymous variants in the coding region.

China successful cultivation of “Jianzhou big ear goat”

11/4/2013

0 Comments

 
The “Jianzhou big-eared goat” is China’s newest meat goat variety.  This marks the second successful cultivation of a new variety of meat goats in Sichuan Province, and the first Chinese meat goat since in 1998 following the country’s successful “Nanjiang yellow goat” variety in Sichuan Province.

Jianzhou big-eared goats evolved after 60 years of crosses between the British Nubian goat and the Jianyang local goat breed, including three cultivation stages: the introduction stage (hybrid form and hybrid population), progressive hybrid breeding stage, and transverse formation of fixed and breeding new varieties subculture stage. Jianzhou big-eared goats are 75% Nubian and 25% Jianyang. 

They are characterised by the following:
