Download or read book Pocket Guide to Sheep Breeds of New Zealand written by Graham Meadows and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home of more than 40 million sheep (over 10 per person), New Zealand is a major global exporter of sheep products: annual wool exports alone are worth well over $800m. Added to that, there is a rapidly growing interest from small businesses and lifestylers in specialist breeds and yarns. Sheep are also a major drawcard for overseas visitors. All of which popular demand adds up to good reason for publishing a Pocket Guide to Sheep Breeds of New Zealand, along with its companion volume, the Pocket Guide to Cattle Breeds of New Zealand. Originally published in large format several years ago by Reed, both books have been brought thoroughly up to date, with new pictures throughout and extended and updated text.
Download or read book British Sheep Breeds written by Susannah Robin Parkin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sheep have been farmed in Britain for hundreds of years and more than thirty million sheep now inhabit these islands. The many breeds developed over this time have been carefully matched to their surroundings – from the hardy, seaweed-eating North Ronaldsay to the tough hill-dwelling Swaledale and the docile Dorset Down of the lowlands. Susannah Robin Parkin here explains the main differences between the various breeds and the qualities of their appearance, temperament, meat and wool, and also outlines the history of sheep farming and the way the industry works. Illustrated with beautiful colour photographs throughout, this is an essential introduction and guide to the main breeds and their classification into upland, hill and lowland varieties.

Download or read book The Herds Shot Round the World written by Rebecca J. H. Woods and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Britain industrialized in the early nineteenth century, animal breeders faced the need to convert livestock into products while maintaining the distinctive character of their breeds. Thus they transformed cattle and sheep adapted to regional environments into bulky, quick-fattening beasts. Exploring the environmental and economic ramifications of imperial expansion on colonial environments and production practices, Rebecca J. H. Woods traces how global physiological and ecological diversity eroded under the technological, economic, and cultural system that grew up around the production of livestock by the British Empire. Attending to the relationship between type and place and what it means to call a particular breed of livestock "native," Woods highlights the inherent tension between consumer expectations in the metropole and the ecological reality at the periphery. Based on extensive archival work in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Australia, this study illuminates the connections between the biological consequences and the politics of imperialism. In tracing both the national origins and imperial expansion of British breeds, Woods uncovers the processes that laid the foundation for our livestock industry today.
