Abstract: This article discusses the meat productivity of 6- and 7-month-old Tsigai rams, which are associated with traditional deadlines for the delivery of young sheep for meat in the autumn period. Research was conducted in the breeding farm for breeding Tsigai sheep of Biokor-S Agrofirm LLC in the Mokshansky District, Penza Region. It was established that in terms of carcass weight, proportion of pulp, and meat-to-bone ratio, seven-month-old rams had an advantage over six-month-old ones. That is, the sale of Tsigai rams at 7 months should be considered a rational, technological method for producing young lamb in the Middle Volga Region.
