dc.description.abstractThe goal of this research was to investigate the wool properties of Malya sheep raised in Central Anatolia of Turkiye. In the investigation, a total of 90 head wool samples were collected, including 30 heads from the same herd's adults (2.5 years and older), yearlings (1-1,5 years), and lambs (4-6 months). Fleece samples were collected from the shoulder, rib and rump areas of animals of all age groups. In these examples, the properties of length, fineness, elasticity and tenacity were determined. At the end of the study, the average greasy fleece weight was 2.2 +/- 0.09 kg, the diameter was 25.7 +/- 0.35 mu in lambs, 25.3 +/- 0.27 mu in yearling, 26.7 +/- 0.26 mu in adults; the average fleece length was 38.8 +/- 1.05 mm in lambs, 70.1 +/- 1.46 mm in yearlings, 62.3 +/- 1.29 mm in adults. As a result, it was determined that the fleece of Malya sheep almost had the desired quality and characteristics in the textile industry. Therefore, scientific studies should be conducted to improve the properties of fleece. It would be appropriate to take permanent steps in cooperation with Public Institutions and Civil Society Organizations to produce, collect and process wool.en_US
