About Sheep Farming
Sheep farming, also known as sheep husbandry, is the practice of raising and breeding domestic sheep. This is considered a branch of animal husbandry and involves the rearing of sheep for their meat (lamb and mutton), milk (sheep’s milk), fiber (wool), and other resources such as sheepskin and parchment. Sheep can thrive in a variety of temperate climates, including arid regions near the equator and other hot areas.
To effectively manage a sheep farm, farmers must construct necessary infrastructure such as fences, housing, shearing sheds, and facilities for water supply, feed storage, transportation, and pest control. The majority of farms are designed to allow sheep to graze on pastures, often under the supervision of a shepherd or using trained sheepdogs.
