Difference of economic traits between Nanjiang Cashmere goat and Xinjiang goat.

【Objective】The main purpose of the study was to analyze the difference of four indexes(sheared weight,cashmere yield,thickness,and fiber diameter)between Xinjiang Nanjiang Cashmere goat and Xinjiang goat,Elucidate breed dominant of each goat breeds,in order to provide theoretical basis for cashmere goat breeding work.【Method】In this experiment,264 Nanjiang Cashmere Goats and 158 Xinjiang Goats were randomly selected,their traits including sheared weight,cashmere yield,thickness,and fiber diameter were analyzed,and the correlation of these traits were analyzed.【Result】sheared weight,cashmere yield,and thickness of Nanjiang Cashmere Goat were extremely significantly higher than that of Xinjiang Goat(P0.01).As for fiber diameter,there was no significant difference between two goat breeds(P0.05).There were positive correlation of fiber diameter,Cashmere yield,thickness for two goat breeds(P0.05).【Conclusion】Xinjiang Nangjiang Cashmere goat had better performance than Xinjiang goat,its value of generalization was higher than Xinjiang goat;Correlation of fiber diameter,Cashmere yield and thickness for two goat breeds could be used for anticipation of cashmere goat's fiber diameter.
