The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the classes assigned by visual appraisal with productive response in live weight (PV), fleece weight(PVLL), fiber diameter(DF) and coefficient of variation of fiber diameter (CVDF), in white colored fleece Huacaya alpacas. Information was collected from 1823 both sex alpacas, belonging to nucleus group of six community organizations in the central highlands of Peru in the department of Cerro de Pasco, in the provinces of Daniel Alcides Carrion and Pasco. Alpacas were grouped in four different classes (S, A, B and C) according to fiber characteristics and body conformation after being visual appraisal in selection labor. The body weight and fleece weight information was obtained in fleece harvest. Fiber samples was taken for diameter fiber and coefficient of variation analysis, it was performed at the Sheep and American Camelids Program Laboratory (POCA) at the National Agrarian University - La Molina (UNALM). Statistical analysis was performed by analysis of variance, with the effects on the statistical model of visual evaluation’classes, sex and age group over performance responses. Alpacas from Super and A classes showed the best productive responses for DF and PVLL than alpacas from other classes. Alpacas from B class showed best productive response for PV, DF and PVLL than alpacas from the C class. It is concluded that in Huacaya alpacas from Pasco region the classes assigned by visual appraisal differ between productive characteristics of live weight, fleece weight and fiber diameter.
