Short summary
This study reports long-term data collected over 10 years on the reproduction, growth, carcass yield, chemical composition, and sensory quality of meat from three native sheep breeds raised under extensive conditions in eastern Türkiye.

The results provide a strong scientific basis for sustainable, breed-oriented sheep production and meat quality improvement.
