Bu araştırmada Jersey inekler Belçika Mavisi ve Chianina ırkları ile kullanma melezlemesi amacı ile tohumlanmışlar ve elde edilen melez generasyon güç doğum ve besi performansı yönünden incelenmiştir. Belçika Mavisi ve Chianina melezi erkek danaların ortalama doğum ağırlıkları arasındaki fark istatistiki yönden önemsiz çıkmasına karşın melez dişi buzağılar arasındaki fark önemli bulunmuştur. Chianina melezlerinin buzağılama kolaylığına ait ortalama puanları Belçika Mavisi melezlerine göre daha yüksek olarak gerçekleşmiş ve fark istatistiki önemde çıkmıştır. Besi süresi içerisinde Chianina melezi erkek ve dişi danalar günlük ortalama canlı ağırlık artışı ve bir kg canlı ağırlık artışı için tüketilen kesif yem bakımından Belçika Mavisi melez erkek ve dişilere üstünlük sağlamışlar ve bu iki özellik bakımından iki genotip arasındaki farklar istatistiki yönden önemli bulunmuştur.
The objectives of the research were commercial crossings of Jersey cows
with Belgian Blue and Chianina breeds and to determine the best sire breed for
dairy beef production.
For this research 70 heads of Jersey cows being used. Thirty cows were artificially
inseminated With Belgian Blue beef breed and the other 40 cows were artificially
inseminated with Chianina beef breed frozen semen.
The average birth weights of Chianina and Belgian Blue crossbred male
calves were 35.0 and 34.7 kg, respectively and difference was not statistically significant.
The Chianina crossbred female calves were heavier than Belgian Blue
crossbred females calves in respect of birthweight and the difference was statistically
significant.
Scores of calving difficulties were lower for Belgian Blue crossbreds than
Chianina in both sexes. There is no dystocia and no Caesarean operation occured
in both groups and sexes. İn order to make comparisons between crossbred and pure male animals, a
group of purebred Jersey male calves was taken to fattening trial.
During the fattening period Chianina crossbred males grew faster than Belgian
Blue crossbreds and gained more live weight in 320 days of fattening period.
Overall daily weight gain and total live weight gain was 0.903 kg and 291.9 kg
in Chianina crossbreds, respectively. On the other hand, overall daily live weight
gains and total weight gains were calculated 0.844 kg and 270.5 kg in Belgian
Blue crossbred males.
Chianina crossbred males gained about 21 kg more live weight than Belgian
Blue crossbreds and this value was statistically significant. Belgian Blue
crossbreds males were also 24 kg heavier than Jersey males at the end of fattening
trial also this values was statistically significant.
Crossbred males in both groups grew faster than purebred males and differences
were statistically significant.
Chianina crossbred females gained more live weight than Belgian Blue
crossbreds. Total weight gain difference was found to be non significant but overall
daily gain difference between female crossbreds was statistically significant.
All animals were fed with concentrates and air dried hay during the fattening
trial. Concentrates were given according to the live weights of the animals
and hay was given ad. libitum.
Concentrates consumption per kg gain in Chianina, Belgian. Blue crossbred
and Jersey purebred male animals were 4.7, 5.1 and 5.6 kg respectively and
differences between genotypies were statistically significant. Concentrates consumption
per kg gain in Chianina and Belgian Blue crossbred female animals
were 5.7 and 6.3 kg, respectively and difference was statistically significant.
It was concluded that Chianina x Jersey crossbreds showed higher performance
(except of calving difficulties) than Belgian Blue x Jersey crossbreds.
