Dómar á lömbum er eitt af stærstu
verkefnum sem tengjast ræktun-
arstarfi í sauðfjárrækt. Tilgangur
þeirra er fyrst og fremst að veita
bændum upplýsingar sem þeir
geta nýtt sér við ásetningsvalið.
Einnig er um að ræða söfnun
upplýsinga til að fá afkvæma-
dóma bæði fyrir heimahrúta og
sæðingastöðvahrúta.
Hér verður gefin stutt samantekt
á helstu niðurstöðum úr lamba­
skoðunum haustið 2019.
Aukin þátttaka
Sauðfjárræktin hefur gengið í
gegnum talsverðar þrengingar á
síðustu árum og hafa afleiðingar
þess m.a. komið niður á þátttöku í
ræktunarstarfinu, þ.e.a.s. sæðingum
og lambadómum. Í haust sáust þess
þó merki að áhugi fyrir ræktunar­
starfinu væri heldur að aukast. Bæði
var farið í fleiri heimsóknir til bænda
í haust en haustið áður og skoðuðum
lömbum fjölgaði þrátt fyrir að fram­
leiðsla hafi dregist talsvert saman.
Samkvæmt fyrirliggjandi gögnum
í Fjárvís.is frá 11. desember sl.
voru stigaðir 12.038 Lambhrútar í
haust en á sama tíma í fyrra lágu
fyrir upplýsingar um 11.321 hrút­
lamb. Lokatalan var síðan aðeins
hærri þegar öll kurl voru komin til
grafar líkt og fram kemur í töflu
1. Skoðaðar gimbrar í haust voru
50.456 talsins sem er rúmlega 3.600
gimbrardómum fleiri en lágu fyrir á
sama tíma í fyrra.
Lömbin væn
Tíðarfar sl. vor og sumar var
víða á landinu fremur kalt og
þurrt. Þrátt fyrir það var vænleiki
lamba að jafnaði góður í haust.
Meðalfallþungi dilka var 16,52 kg
samkvæmt niðurstöðum frá slát­
urhúsunum og er það svipað og
árið áður, en þá var hann 16,56 kg
og var þá næstmesti meðalþungi
sem mælst hefur. Lambhrútarnir
sem komu til skoðunar í haust voru
svipaðir að þyngd og í fyrra, með
aðeins þykkari vöðva og stiguðust
heldur hærra líkt og sjá má í töflu 1.
Þetta er í ágætu samræmi við niður­
stöður slátrunar þar sem lömbin
voru heldur léttari en gerðareinkunn
sláturdilka potaðist upp á milli ára
úr 8,99 í 9,04.
Efstu hrútar
Í töflu 2. Er að finna yfirlit yfir 5
hæststigðu lambhrúta í hverju hér­
aði. Séu hrútar jafnir að stigum,
ráða samanlögð stig fyrir frampart,
bak, malir og læri. Séu einhverjir
enn jafnir er næst tekið tillit til bak­
vöðvaþykktar, þá fituþykktar og
síðast er það lag bakvöðvans sem
sker úr um röðun.
Hæststigaði lambhrúturinn í
haust er frá Landamótsseli í Suður­
Þingeyjarsýslu með 92,5 stig. Þetta
er annað árið í röð sem hæst stig­
aði lambhrútur landsins kemur frá
þessum bæ. Þessir stigakóngar eru
albræður undan Belg 17­166 og
Gyltu 15­648. Belgur er sonarsonur
Gaurs 09­879 og dóttursonur Snæs
07­867. Gylta er af heimakyni en í
langfeðratali má rekja ættir hennar
til sæðingastöðvahrútanna Grána
03­957, Hriflons 07­837, Ljúfs
05­968, Kalda 03­989, Þráðar
06­996 og Lóða 00­871.
Næstur í röðinni með 91,5 stig er
annar Suður­Þingeyingur sem hlotið
hefur nafnið Toppur 19­123. Toppur
er frá Búvöllum undan kaupahrút frá
Bassastöðum í Steingrímsfirði sem
Glanni heitir, sonur Fáfnis 16­995
frá Mýrum 2. Móðurföðurfaðir
Topps er Bekri 12­911 frá Hesti.
Þá koma einir 8 hrútar með 91
stig. Efstur af þeim raðast Neró
19­166 frá Mýrum 2. Gríðarþykkur
bakvöðvi hans skaut honum fram
fyrir aðra hrúta í uppröðun. Hann
mældist með 43 mm þykkan vöðva.
Neró er sonur Kögguls 17­810 frá
Hesti. Móðir hans er tvævelta, ákaf­
lega efnileg með 9,9 afurðastig. Hún
rekur ættir sínar m.a. í Danna 12­923
frá Sveinungsvík og Guma 09­880
frá Borgarfelli.
Synir stöðvahrútanna
Í Hrútaskránni má finna yfrlit yfir
meðaltöl allra sona sæðingastöðva­
hrútanna sem skoðuð voru ásamt
nýju kynbótamati fyrir holdfyll­
ingu og fitu. Þær niðurstöður gefa
besta mynd af því hvernig þessir
kynbótagripir standa sig. Það er
einnig áhugavert að skoða hvaða
stöðvahrútar eiga stærsta hlutdeild
í toppunum í hverri sýslu. Af þeim
100 lambhrútum sem birtast í töflu
2 þá eru 31 lambhrútur undan
sæðingastöðvahrútum. Af þeim á
Mávur 15­990 frá Mávahlíð flesta
eða 7 talsins. Mávur hefur sannað
sig sem mjög öflugur lambafaðir
en afkvæmi hans eru bæði vel gerð
og skarta góðri ull sem gerir gæfu
muninn í heildar stigum. Tvistur
14­988 frá Hríshóli á næstflesta
syni eða 4. Þá koma þeir Bergsson
14­986 frá Valdasteinsstöðum og
Guðni 17­814 frá Miðdalsgröf með
3 syni hvor.
Að lokum
Að bæta vaxtarlag sauðfjár er lang­
hlaup. Þar hafa margir ræktendur
náð frábærum árangri á síðustu
áratugum. Góð þátttaka í lamba­
mælingum og sæðingum hefur án
efa skilað þar gríðar miklu og er
augljós sá munur sem fram kemur
í öllum eiginleikum sem unnið er
með í ræktunarstarfinu ef skoðuð
eru meðaltöl búa sem eru virk í rækt­
unarstarfinu og þeirra sem ekki taka
þátt í þessum lykilverkefnum. Þótt
gæðin þokist upp á við að jafnaði
þá er stærsta sóknarfærið í því að
lyfta upp meðaltölum á landsvísu,
hvort sem það er fyrir skrokkgæði
eða afurðaeiginleika ánna, að virkja
þann hluta bænda sem á inni mikil
sóknarfæri.
Gleðileg jól
