Sažetak
A research project was started at the Faculty of Textile Technology in Zagreb with the aim of studying the quality and properties of coarse domestic wool in order to revive the interest of textile industry for this neglected source of raw material. Some preliminary results of the extent sheep breeding are presented in this paper. Before this war on the whole teritory of Croatia there were 750 thousand sheep , mostly in Dalmatia and lstria and in the region of Osijek in East Slavonia. A detailed survey has shown that in the last years there has been a growing interest in sheep breeding, particulary in lstria and in the region of Osijek. In lstria and on the island Cres of an increase from 32,732 (1989/90) to 49,277 (1992) head has been counted. A great variety of breeds has also been observed which is not suitable for wool in industry. The indigenous "lstrian pramenka“ however has been bred less and less and there is a real danger for this breed to become completly extinat.
