Abstract:

The people of Turan have long been able to create an economic system based on the climate, natural conditions, and geographical resources. Over the centuries, this system expanded and became richer due to new industries and networks.

Significant knowledge on animal husbandry can also be found in writings from the early medieval period. Sugd's papers contain notes on the kinds of animals that were brought to the palace. Specifically, the sheep transported to the palace included purebred rams on the list. They are chosen for the purpose of breeding. Rams used for breeding are imported from various parts of the nation. It is documented that there are Tibetan and white sheep breeds among the various varieties.

According to the accounts, Turkish annalists were highly regarded for their keen knowledge not only in the palaces of their own countries but also in those of their surrounding countries. Chinese sources identify Shi Hedan (Shi Hedan dānhđdān) as one such skilled horseman. Information claims that he was born in Shahrisabz.

During the Middle Ages, donations of animals and associated equipment were significant from an economic and political standpoint. extensively employed in commerce services and military supplies. The horse was also the greatest present that a state's monarch could give another, serving as a sign of statehood. Specifically, the king of Tokharistan was said to have sent China expensive gifts, including horses and mules.

Important details regarding the social life and occupation of Turan people, particularly animal husbandry, may be discovered in a number of Arab historians' works. Important information regarding the use of animals can be found in Kufi's writings. The number and type of their upkeep are taken into consideration, particularly in taxation. Worker animals were exempt from taxes. As working animals, camels, horses, cattle, and donkeys were also employed. They were not grazed on meadows and did not develop big herds, thus they were exempt from taxes.

The traits, towns, and goods of the various Turan region regions are listed in Abu Mansur al-Saalibi's "Kitab latoif al-maarif".
