How bigs your farm and how many head do you run?
@deepsouthsheepbeef43076 ай бұрын
620 acres and roughly 2300 ewes and 650 hoggets, with 40-50 dairy beef calves taken from 5 days thru to 18 months.

Wool worth anything? Or is shearing just an animal health plus now rather than a money earner

It might actually cover the shearing price this year. Might.

Here in UK in 1950 dad bought our 228 acre farm for £2000 in 1950s the wool check from around 300 sheep ranged from £200 to £400 so 10 years wool could have paid for the farm. 2023 and the wool from 300 ewes for 10 years wouldn't buy half an acre
