The aim of the research work was, firstly, to increase the genetic potential of the productivity of camels of the Kazakh Bactrian breed and of methods for its implementation based on selection; secondly, to determine the selective and genetic parameters of dairy products and the optimal ways of conducting breeding work with Kazakh Bactrians of dairy direction. In the conditions of deserts and semi-deserts, the development of dairy cattle breeding is impossible due to the scarcity of food resources, except for productive camel breeding. It is the branch of productive animal husbandry that will allow involving more than 100 million hectares of desert and semi-desert lands into economic activity with the subsequent development of social infrastructure with all the attributes of a competitive market economy. The conducted research indicates that the organization of selection and breeding work in dairy camel breeding should be based on selection and genetic parameters. The obtained values of the milk yield heritability coefficients (h2 = 0.353) are due to polygenes, which complicate the selection process. When organizing breeding work with camels of the Kazakh Bactrian breed of dairy products, we recommend that you analyze the selective and genetic parameters, this will allow you to reasonably select camels of linear origin and improve the productivity of the main herd.
