The camel is one of the few domestic species that produces milk, meat, leather, wool, manure and work. The Algerian camel herd has experienced a significant increase in recent years, reaching a population of about 4165000 heads in 2019. This livestock is located in 17 Wilayates, including 8 Saharan and 9 Stepppiques. The main breeds raised in Algeria are: the Chaambi, Ouled Sidi Cheikh, Ait Khebbach, Steppe Camel, Saharaoui, Targui, Ajjer, Reguibi and Ftouh. The camel sector in Algeria is facing several constraints of sanitary, genetic, logistical and organizational nature. The management of land and common spaces, following the sedentarization of some breeders, is another difficulty that the sheep sector must face. Several favorable factors to the camel breeding in Algeria such as pedoclimatic diversity of the country, culture/religion, economic and genetic (diversity) can help to improve the Algerian red meat production. The objective of this paper is to present the current situation of camel farming in Algeria.
