Long Wool Sheep Versus Merinos in Profitable Farming
A 19th century argument compares long-wooled English sheep and Merinos, weighing wool yield, mutton output, and price dynamics. It notes mutton demand rising in cities and English wools commanding varied prices, with recommendations favoring large long-wooled sheep for meat-first farms and Merinos where wool value dominates. weathering price shifts and soil conditions, it argues the best breed depends on local factors and market focus.
