The Islamic Republic of Mauritania lies between longitudes 15 to 17 north and covers an area of 1,030,700 square km.<\/p>

The desert climate in the north and south coast is generally hot and dry, and maximum temperatures in May-June exceed 44 degrees. The minimum temperatures can reach 10 degrees in January-February.<\/p>

between 20-25 degrees in the winter which extends from November to February <\/span> 40 degrees for the period from April <\/span>to September<\/span>.
From July to September :<\/span> the rainy season. In the desert, there are very significant differences between daytime and nighttime temperatures at night the temperature can reach 0 degrees.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Animal production systems :<\/h4><\/div>
We must distinguish three major livestock production systems, namely :<\/span><\/strong>

Intensive farming :<\/h4>

It is spread in most part of the country, except for the region of the river. Cattle are concentrated especially in the south – east of the country (Hodh El Sharqi, Hodh El Gharbi, Assaba ), representing 64% of the cattle butcher, 49% of cattle, sheep and goats, camels and 40% of cattle.
-This region feeds mainly the capital and the northern cities it guarantees a significant portion of export for the money market.
– Southwest (Trarza, Brakna and kourkol) Cover 25 % of the cattle of butcher’s shop 38 % of the cattle, the ovine races and the goats, and 19 % of the camels of cattle; and the surplus of the production is used to feed the Senegalese market.
– The small ruminant production is still in its early stages.
– Pastures are many, however, they can not be operated along the year, partly due to the lack of permanent water points.
– The red meat production is estimated at 111 000 tones, which largely covers the demand that is 75,000 tones, and which allows to have a surplus of 36,000 tones.The demand for meat export is 90,000 tons (estimation and marketing of red meat in Mauritania, The Ministry of Rural Development 2009).<\/p>

Stable Breeding :<\/h4>

Semi intensive and generally practiced in the pond of the river with a light movement during the season of plantation.<\/p>

Breeding animals for milk production :<\/h4>

The animal breeding is characterized by the absence of inventory of the cattle of breeding during the sixties ten, which were marked by the drought and led to the cancellation of the price setting of the cattle.
However we can refer to the statistics of the Directorate of Animal Development, Ministry of Rural Development presented in 2006. Estimates of cattle :<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>Camels :<\/span> 1.413.000 heads.
Sheep :<\/span> 16.700.000 heads.
Cow :<\/span> 1.763.000 heads.<\/div>
