MEASURES TO IMPROVE THE MANAGEMENT OF SHEEP MEAT PRODUCTION

Lucian Pascariu, Ana Gina Trica, Ioan Petroman

Abstract


The constant supply of meat and sheep products involves finding relevant solutions that use at optimal parameters the existing resources in the area, without major impact on environmental factors, by increasing production. Proper location of farms is the best way to preserve the quality of the environment, if best operating practices are developed for meat production. Sustainable management practices can reduce the effects on grazing through the efficient use of alternative feeds, breeds and hybrids with a high degree of adaptability and good conversion rates.
