About This Item
TS 3739 is a terms-and-definitions standard for the naming used for cattle, sheep, goats, horses, water buffaloes and camels. Its subject is to bring together, in one common framework, the terms used for animals at different ages and the definitions of breeds raised in Turkey, so that the same livestock types are not described in inconsistent ways.
Why age terms and breed names are not the same
In animal husbandry, terminology is not just everyday wording; it is a technical language used to distinguish age, sex, breed and production stage. These distinctions matter in herd management, breeding records, improvement programmes and statistical classification. In general technical context, age categories describe the animal’s stage of development, while a breed refers to a population shaped by inherited and observable characteristics.
A common vocabulary for breeds raised in Turkey
The other main scope of the standard is the definition of breeds raised in Turkey. This helps make livestock terminology more consistent in local practice and reduces ambiguity across different species such as cattle, sheep, goats, horses, water buffaloes and camels. A terminology standard of this kind supports clearer technical communication, teaching materials, field records and breeding work by helping the same concept be used with the same meaning.
