Analysis of the reproductive properties of the sheep´s herd in Michlova Huť
 NOVÁKOVÁ, Iva
At the present time in the Czech Republic we can see a growing number of sheep. This is associated with the breed´s development and with various possibilities of their breeding in terms of production. Farmers are mostly focused on breeding for meat and lamb production but what is also important is the selection breeding which is governed by specific rules. These breeds have to maintain constant animal quality. For this purpose they use animal health checks, regular selection, data derived from the records and results of the performance monitoring. The main goal of my Bachelor thesis was an analysis of the reproductive indicators in the herd of sheep in Michlova Huť for which I used data collected during the last two years of breeding (2009, 2010). I also conducted a comparison of fertility observed in sheep during the development of this farm with the current situation of selection breeding. Reproductive indicators are indeed the main source of information about the past and the future development of the sheep´s herd. Based on this analysis I found out that there was no significant influence of paternal line on sheep fertility and ewes (female sheep) intensity of fertility in the surveyed sample of Sumava sheep in Michlova Huť during the years 2009 and 2010. Furthermore, I discovered that the longer this farm exist the higher value of the ewes fertility is there. In 1978 the value of the sheep fertility on this farm was 113,4% while the actual situation from 2010 shows the fertility value of 146,1%. To describe the current state of Sumava sheep in Michlova Huť I used the results of the the performance monitoring found in 2009 and 2010 which do not differ from one another and so they confirm the same breeder´s trend.
