Türkiye has an important place for small livestock industry both among EU countries and worldwide, with its livestock population and native sheep and goat breeds adapted to different climatic conditions. Since the establishment of the Republic, crossbreeding projects have been implemented by different public institutions and organizations in Türkiye to increase both meat, milk and wool production. Even though some of the developed breeds have been raised by farmers; Some of the those did not have the opportunity to spread to the field, and some breeds or genotypes could not go beyond the research level. Crossbreeding is the most important tool used in animal husbandry to exceed a certain level of productivity in breeds that have reached a certain level of productivity in animal breeding. Considering that the practices to be carried out without ignoring this basic information are accepted at the breeder level, the most important project in which both the sector stakeholders take responsibility and come together is the Public Small Ruminant Breeding National Project. This project aims to improve small ruminants raised by the public in terms of various productivity characteristics. In this study, the process that the project has gone through to date will be examined, and then some suggestions will be made regarding the needs that have arisen in the project, as well as the achievements of the current situation.
