TL;DR: Rabbit farming is a useful production activity on small scale family farms and breeding 2-3 couples of reproducing rabbits could increase the gross annually income of family farm up to 22-28 percent.
Abstract: Rabbit breeding on small scale family farms is carried on as an alternative production activity, in Albania. Extensive production system and breeding of local rabbit breed are most frequent. Albanian local rabbit can be classified in middle size breed group. It is a population with high morphological and biological variability, with variation in coat colour. Rabbit farming is a useful production activity on small scale family farms. Breeding 2-3 couples of reproducing rabbits could increase the gross annually income of family farm up to 22-28 percent.

TL;DR: Statistical and multivariate analyses used to evaluate and compare the productive characteristics of local rabbit breed and F 1 crossbreds showed that the differences between two genotypes are significant only in improved rearing system.
Abstract: PaPa, L., K. Kume and a. LLambiri, 2013. Comprising study of productive characteristics of local rabbit breed and F 1 crossbreds (Californian Line (♂) x Albanian local rabbit breed (♀)) rearing in traditional and improved system. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 19: 806-809 a total of 267 male and female rabbits coming from local rabbit breed and F 1 crossbreds (Californian Line crosses (♂) x Albanian local rabbit breed(♀)) rearing in traditional and improved system were used for this study. The evaluation and comparison of productive performances live weight at weaning (WLW), live weight at slaughter age (SLW), and average of weight gain (AWG) of these two genotypes reared in two different systems was the aim of this study. Statistical and multivariate analyses used to evaluate and compare the productive characteristics of local rabbit breed and F 1 crossbreds showed that the differences between two genotypes are significant only in improved rearing system(SLW 2822.1 g vc 2338.5 g, P<0.01), AWG 26.24 g vc 35.51 g, P<0.05. The differences between sexes and the effect of rearing season are statistically significant in both rearing systems, (P<0.05). The Gompertz curves have significant differences affected by the genotype (P<0.01) only in rabbits reared in improved system. The rabbits of local breed reared in improved system produce more meat than in traditional system. (SLW 2338 g vc, 2042.4 g P<0.05 AWG 35.51 g, vc 26.24 g P<0.05). The (F 1 ) crosses could improve meat production from rabbits only if they are kept in improved system.

TL;DR: Albania's local rabbit breed is classified in medium breed group with harmonic body development and the Albanian local rabbit population is distinguished for considerable level of local differentiation.
Abstract: Animal Production Department, Agricultural University, Tirana, Albania Six measures of body conformation of six rabbit subpopulations were analyzed to determine the quantity of local differentiation of Albanian rabbit population. Data analyses showed that: (i) the local rabbit breed is classified in medium breed group with harmonic body development, (ii) the Albanian local rabbit population is distinguished for considerable level of local differentiation (iii) the main factor of this differentiation is the isolation in distance of rabbit subpopulations (iv) local differentiation can contribute on genetic variability conservation of Albanian local rabbit population that is actually under the pressure of genetic erosion.
