During the last decade, demand for meat has been increasingly grown and will continue to rise in Iran and its northern neighbored countries due to growth in their population and per capita income. Therefore the optimized management of the existing resources tends the perfecting of appropriate analysis models of production systems throughout needful information. A plenty national research works has been done to find out the performance and meat production potentials of kids from various goat types since last years. This paper, presents the results of works done on the growth performance and meat production of some Iranian Kids under intensive feeding system. | ||||
