Abstract
The work is devoted to analyzing the dynamics of camel breeding development in the Republic of Kazakhstan and the prospects of meat-wool camel breeding development. The object of research is dromedary camels of Arvana breed, Bactrians of Kazakh breed, Kazakh-Kalmyk Bactrians and Kazakh dromedaries bred in Turkestan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The coefficient of wool shearing is: in Turkmen dromedaries of Arvan breed 0,65; Kazakh bactrians 1,06; Kazakh-Kalmyk bactrians 0.95; Kazakh dromedaries 0,73. Kazakh bactrians (5,9 kg) are significantly superior to Turkmen Arvan dromedaries (3,6 kg) (p < 0,001), Kazakh dromedaries (4,2 kg) (p < 0,01) and insignificantly superior to Kazakh-Kalmyk bactrians in terms of wool cutting. Kazakh bactrians have the thinnest downy part of the coat (17,4 µm), compared to Turkmen Arvan dromedaries (19,2 µm), Kazakh-Kalmyk bactrians (20,1 µm) and Kazakh dromedaries (18,9 µm). During 1990-2023, the total camel population increased 1.8 times from 143,00 thousand heads to 259,146 thousand heads.
