 The American Sheep Industry Association (ASI) launched an initiative encouraging U.S. sheep producers to grow their flocks to meet increasing demands for lamb and wool production. Their Let's Grow campaign has three goals:
1. Encourage producers to increase the size of their flock by two ewes per operation or by two ewes per 100.
2. Encourage producers to increase the average birthrate per ewe to two lambs per year.
3. Encourage producers to increase the harvested lamb crop by 2 percent – from 108 percent to 110 percent. |
