The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of three different grazing systems: isolated, alternate and simultaneous, on feed intake, performance and carcass characteristics of sheep. About 5.2 ha area of Tanzania grass (Panicum maximun Jacq cultivate Tanzania) was divided into 13 paddocks. This area was used as a stocking rate of two animal units (AU) per ha for 7 days' occupation and 21 days rest. A total number of 58 animals were used consisting of 12 heifers and 30 Santa Ines lambs with the addition of 16 adult ewes that were used to stabilize grazing pressure in the isolated system. The sheep were fed on 200 g per head per day of concentrate and cattle 2 kg per head per day. The parameters determined were the following:weekly weight (WW), total live weight gain (LWG) and mean daily weight gain (MDW). Also dry matter intake was estimated 84 days after the start of the experiment using external indicators (Purified and Enriched Lignin) in addition to carcass traits and composition which were also estimated. The result obtained for carcass composition revealed that the muscle:bone ratio and bone percentage were better in the alternate system. Moreover, the simultaneous and isolated systems showed higher lamb performance than the alternate system, while there was no effect on dry matter intake. Furthermore, there was no difference of the different systems on carcass traits and feed intake of sheep. Nevertheless, the simultaneous grazing system showed better sheep performance than the alternate grazing system.

“…Valsta et al (2005) reported that the cholesterol concentration of meats range between 30 and 120 mg/100 g of meat portion. Our results are lower than those found in the meat of the crossbreed mouflon × Sarda (356 mg/100 g of fresh matter); however, they are higher than those reported by Yousefi et al (2012) for two Iranian breeds (50.08-53.37 mg per 100 g of meat) and by Liu et al (2015) for Oula lamb meat (54.84-60.24 mg per 100 g of meat). Similar to these findings, Sinanoglou et al (2013) reported a cholesterol concentration of 90.71 mg/100 g FM in the meat of Karagouniko lamb.…”

Abstract. The lipid analysis of commercial lamb's meat, from two main Moroccan production areas Middle Atlas and highlands of eastern Morocco, was conducted. This study concerns the lipid quality of sheep meat from Beni Guil (BG) and Timahdite (Ti) as indigenous breeds and that of the Ouled Djellal (ODj) breed of Algerian origin. To study the effect of the geographical area, the meat samples from the Beni Guil breed were taken in the two main locations of this breed: in the region of Ain Beni Mathar (BGA) and that of Tendrara (BGT). The fatty acid profiles of the sheep meats analyzed showed the following: (i) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) richness was of 12.87 % and 20.59 % respectively for BGA and BGT breeds; (ii) polyunsaturated ∕ saturated fatty acid ratios were ranged between 0.28 to 0.50 respectively for BGA and Ti breed; and (iii) PUFA-n−3 content was 1.71 % for ODj breed and 2.13 % for BGA. Thus, the PUFA-n−6 ∕ PUFA n−3 ratios range between 4.92 and 9.6 for BGA and Ti sheep meat, respectively. The cholesterol content was 0.08 % and 0.12 % of fresh meat respectively for ODj and BGA. Finally, meats of BGA and ODj have similar thrombogenicity (1.23 and 1.27 respectively) and atherogenicity indices (0.71 and 0.68 respectively). Statistically, these values were significantly higher than those registered for Ti breed (IT: 1.04 and AI: 0.51). In conclusion, from a nutritional point of view, it can be deduced that these meats have an interesting lipid quality due to their richness in desirable fatty acid (UFA + C18 : 0).

“…The meat of lambs of the SF and K breeds was darker (SF: L* = 40.85; K: L* = 40.28). Higher L* values were found by Souza et al (2016) in their experiment; on the contrary, almost the same values for the Oulu breed were recorded by Liu et al (2015). Regarding the effect of line, dominance (p ≤ 0.01) of all lines of the ZW breed over the SF and K lines was apparent.…”

“…In our study, the same statistical relationships between the monitored breeds were found for the indicator of kidney ratio of carcass weight of JUT, as in the case of comparison of the degree of fat cover. Liu et al (2015) reported a 0.33 ± 0.02 % kidney ratio of total carcass weight in the Oulu breed at carcass weight of 17.72 kg. In the Romeo (0.78 ± 0.08 %) and Avatar line (0.8 ± 0.08 %), kidneys also constituted a significantly (p ≤ 0.05) higher ratio of carcass weight than in the Ztepl line (0.64 ± 0.06 %).…”

The aim of our experiment was to evaluate to what degree carcass value and quality of lamb meat are effected by selected breeds (Zwartbles, Suffolk, Romney Marsh) and lines (Zbyšek, Ztepl, Záblesk, Ewebank Armani, President, Romeo, Avatar). Suffolk breed rams were found to have (p ≤ 0.05) the lowest weight at slaughter (37.47 ± 4.10 kg) and also carcass weight (15.23 ± 1.78 kg). Romney Marsh's carcasses had a significantly higher degree of fat cover (3.6 ± 0.4), kidney fat ratio was 0.78 ± 0.17 % and the percentage of fat from the right leg was 2.50 ± 0.61 %. The conclusively (p ≤ 0.01) highest ratio of the right leg was recorded in the Suffolk breed (17.00 ± 0.79 %). The highest ratio of the leg of carcass among the lines was found in the President line (17.53 ± 0.66 %). Meat of the Suffolk line had the significantly (p ≤ 0.01) highest ratio of dry matter, intramuscular fat, protein and ash. Among the lines, this trend was similar in favor of the Suffolk's line. The Zwartbles breed had the lowest (p ≤ 0.01) ratio of fat and dry matter in the meat. The value of pH, lightness (L* = 51.55 ± 1.66) and color spectrum b* (13.12 ± 0.46) of meat was conclusively (p ≤ 0.01) the highest in the Zwartbles breed, while the redness indicator (7.56 ± 1.45) was conclusively the lowest for this breed. Statistically (p ≤ 0.01), the meat of the Suffolk breed had the most potent red color (a* = 11.87 ± 1.24) and the highest water-holding capacity (81.57 ± 1.87).
