The main trend in sheep breeding is a steady increase in the volume of mutton production which determines the increasing demand for meat and wool. The development and application of effective methods for increasing and improving meat productivity is relevant. Biophysical methods used in animal husbandry is of interest. One of the methods is the impact of low-intensity laser radiation. Biophysical methods used in animal husbandry can activate biological reserves and realize the genetic potential of productive qualities. At the same time, it is necessary to consider morphological features of sheep exposed to low-frequency infrared laser radiation. The article studies quantitative and qualitative indices of meat productivity, the degree of internal organs development, and the chemical composition of muscle tissues. Intergroup differences in young sheep exposed to low-frequency laser radiation were found. Positive changes in the degree of internal organs and systems development in animals exposed to low-intensity infrared laser radiation were identified. They indicate the intensity of metabolic processes in the body, the positive productivity dynamics.
As the livestock industry, sheep breeding takes the third place in the world, this is one of the most extensive types of agriculture. Currently, the main attention in the sheep breeding is directed to increasing in meat productivity and improving the quality of products. The important technique that contributes to the increase and improvement of the quality of livestock production is the use of laser radiation. The article presents the results of research directed to studying of influence of low-intensity laser radiation on the organism of young sheep. The area of impact of laser radiation on the animal organism is defined. The positive influence of laser radiation on the growth and development of young sheep and their immune reactivity is established. The revealed regularity is confirmed by the bigger size of the live weight, increased energy of growth in all studied periods of ontogenetic development, the more developed factors of natural protection at the experimental animals. The effectiveness of the directed impact of laser puncture on the organism of young sheep has been proved to improve meat productivity and resistance. The developed method of laser puncture can be used to increase the meat productivity, safety and resistance of young sheep.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
