Extract

Our objective was to provide basic information that can be used to direct sheep production to produce meat, which meets consumer demands. Here, we present the results of a series of studies that were designed to assess the effect of different production systems on carcass quality characteristics of lambs from Greek dairy breeds of sheep.
