The paper gives review on more recent research into the influence of nutrition on production results in fattening lambs. The results regarding the influence of feeding systems and diet composition on body weight gain feed conversion and meat quality in fattening lambs are given. Obtained results show that with suitable feeding system the body weight gain and feed conversion can be increased by 19-21% and 10-17% respectively. Besides, in this way the quality of lamb meat can be improved as well. The research showed that in hilly-mountainous region of Serbia, with 90 day old lambs on proper nutrition system the lambs of body mass of 23,0-25,0 kg with excellent meat quality can be produced.

The effect of age of slaughter and sex on productive performance, carcass and meat quality characteristics was studied in 4 different age groups viz., T1 (7–8 months), T2 (9–10 months), T3 (11-12 months) and T4 (13-14 months). Each group consisted of 15 barrows and 15 gilts. With the advancement of age, feed conversion efficiency decreased significantly; however, sex did not seem to influence the feed conversion efficiency of crossbred pigs. Hot carcass weight increased linearly with the advancement of age. Carcass length increased with age but was not influenced by sex. The dressing percentage, back fat thickness, loin eye area were not affected by age and sex of the animal. Proximate composition and colour of pork Longissimus dorsi was not affected by the age and sex of the animal. Pork tenderness decreased with age.
