This publication originated from a meeting of the Animal Resources Sub-Network of the FAO-CIHEAM Cooperative Research Network on Sheep and Goats. The objectives of the meeting were the revision and definition of the genetic improvement objectives for sheep and goats, from the technical and economic point of view, in different countries and productive situations of the Mediterranean area and in other non-Mediterranean European countries. The meeting was attended by 26 participants from Algeria, Croatia, Cyprus, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Spain, Tunisia and Turkey and 18 exposés were given on the subject. In some, very precise results were presented based on analysis of technical and economic data obtained in a large number of flocks. It has been shown that for dairy sheep the milk yield is the technical index that most widely affects the economic profitability of the farm while the reproductive performances may also consistently influence this profitability in some production systems
