Southern SARE Grantee-Produced Info Product

Small Ruminant Sustainability Checksheet

ruminantcheck_cover
Download Product

This in-depth checksheet is designed to stimulate critical thinking when evaluating a farm that produces sheep or goats. The sustainability of a farm depends on many factors involving farm management, use of resources, and quality of life. The questions in this checksheet are intended to stimulate awareness rather than to rate management practices. Use this guide to define areas in your farm management that might be improved, as well as to identify areas of strength.
