INTERNATIONAL HAIR SHEEP BREEDING EFFORTS: Did you know that there are Sheep Farmers who raise Hair or Shedding Sheep across the world - including Barbados Blackbelly Sheep? Have you heard of Nolana Sheep? And what are Kamerun Sheep? Is there a breed named "Easy Care" Sheep? Sheep farmers from around the world have opportunities to learn from each other thru sharing experiences and results of crossbreeding experiments with the advent of the Internet. You can not only share with your fellow sheep farmers here in the United States, but you can follow the efforts of sheep farmers from Europe and beyond. We, at Rafter SB, encourage you to explore how sheep farmers everywhere are focusing on hair sheep and are developing new breeds and working to improve current breeds. Visit the links in the box to the right and learn from sheep breeders across the world! |
The Nolana Network Germany is an Association in
Germany
that is dedicated to promoting hair sheep breeding in Germany and
knowledge of hair sheep breeding on a global level. Rafter SB is
pleased to be a cooperation partner in spreading and sharing
knowledge about hair sheep breeding.
This network offers links to various Hair Sheep Breeders and Breeds in an effort to spread knowledge and assist in exchanges of information throughout the sheep breeding world. |
