A three year U S Department of Agriculture study on Rambouillet sheep shows that increasing staple length has a larger impact on marketable wool weight than density. Fleece over an inch longer is 22 percent heavier, while density near 95 percent yields only about 2 percent more. Breeders can raise staple length while maintaining good density through improved feeding and management.
