【 摘 要 】

As thousands of years ago, now Tuvan arats-pastoralists keep seven types of livestock (sheep, goats, cows, horses, yaks, camels, deer), each of which takes a certain place in the diet of population. The natural areas of Tuva are perfect for transhumance. Reforms in the 1990s led to the collapse of state farms, in the absence of work in rural areas, the population engaged in the Tuvan traditional type of livestock breeding - transhumance, mainly sheep, goats and cattle of local breed. For a large number of the rural population of Tuva, animal husbandry has become a socially important and vital activity. Now there are more livestock in Tuva than during the industrialization of agriculture in Soviet times. However, Tuva has not developed an effective mechanism for the sale of livestock products and its further processing which would increase the income of shepherds' families. For the first time on the basis of the complex analysis of animal husbandry in Tuva the structure of expenses and income of an average livestock farm is defined, also its economic efficiency is calculated. It was concluded that animal products, such as milk, wool and skin, economically viable in the Soviet period, currently do not generate income because of absence of organized animal products collection points, and the economic efficiency of livestock farms nowadays is achieved only through the production of ovine and bovine meat.
