Making money with sheep
As with other agricultural enterprises, sheep farming is not a "get-rich-quick" scheme. The profit margins are narrow. To make money raising sheep, you would need at least several hundred ewes, probably more than 500. While there are some farmers who make a majority of their income from sheep farming.
World sheep numbers
According to the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, there are more than one billion sheep world wide. Sheep production is increasing in some countries; declining in others. While China has the most sheep, Australia and New Zealand the dominate world markets for lamb and wool.
