The results of the production of Suffolk sheep during their acclimatization to conditions in Vojvodina (Serbia) were presented in the paper. Sheep fertility, birth weight, weight at one and two months of age, yield of wool and fiber diameter were estimated during the period of three years. Two rams were tested by biological and progeny tests. Male lambs selected during 2006 and 2007 were performance tested for daily gain and feed conversion. Average daily gain of male lambs was 370 g, while average feed conversion was 2.49. The fertility of sheep was increased during the period of research and it was 1.33 in 2005, while in 2007 it was 1.68. The results show that Suffolk sheep has adapted well to the new breeding conditions.
