title: [Promotion of Moroccan national agricultural research in the area of sheep production--a project of German development cooperation].
abstract: With a population size of 14 mio. animals the sheep herders of Morocco produce 25-30% of the national red meat production. Moroccan sheep production is characterized by a low productivity of the females. With a support of the national research in the sector of sheep production, reasons for that, and possibilities of improvement should be found. The German development agency (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit) promotes this fact with 2 scientific advisers. They will implement a problem and client-oriented research formation and advice in management and methodology activities of the project. Already in the stage of setting research priorities and formulate research subjects the later user of the research results (extension service, breeders) are actively involved. A stronger triangle relation Research-Extension-Breeder is the objective. Examples of the project work are given.
