Studies on small ruminants at the Research Farm Unit of Çukurova University have focused on the modernization of husbandry methods (improved nutrition and housing and machine milking) and genetic improvement of local Awassi sheep and Hair (Black) goat in intensive and subtropical climate conditions. Over a period of 20 years, new synthetic sheep and goat genotypes have been developed. Our organization has a capacity to handle 1000 head of goat and 500 head of sheep. The genetic improvement methods used, methods relevant to modernization of husbandry, the present situation from technology transfer point of view and the possible improvements to be achieved in the near future will be dealt with in this paper
