Abundant rainfall for forage production and a large population consuming sheep products in the eastern United States makes this area an ideal location for sheep farming. This and the companion web site about marketing ( http://www.sheepgoatmarketing.info/ ) are designed to help farmers take advantage of the opportunity to develop or expand sheep farms in the region.
