Estimation of genetic parameters for deviation in age at market weight and deviation in weight at market age in Menz sheep

Reducing the number of days from birth to slaughter is one strategy to improve animal feed and environmental efficiency. The export market use yearling sheep weighing 22–30 kg and usually purchases from large and small-scale traders at an early age (lambs weighing ≥ 15 kg) for mutton production. Hen...
