The Sheep of St Monica’s Farm, Lesotho

The flock, composed of 10 sheep when the farm was launched (3 males and 7 females), has increased by 50% in 2 years thanks to three new births this year.  

The sheep bring an additional income for the farm with the sale of wool, a specialty of this small mountainous country. This resource contributes to the financial balance of the farm. It is also possible to sell animals preferably within the limit of the reconstitution of the initial livestock. The young farmers have also set aside plots of land for fodder, in order to increase their self-sufficiency.
