Three small ruminant community based breeding plans were developed and implemented. (1) meat sheep in Kyrgyzstan, (2) dairy sheep in Kyrgyzstan and (3) Mohair goats in Tajikistan. The development procedure involved basically three steps: discussion of options amongst technical teams, a workshop with farmers to select an option, and a formal agreement on a calendar of activities for the 2007/2008 breeding cycle. In each case a specific genetic structure was designed and selection criteria based on records of visual assessment and objective information defined.
