French

Domaine(s)
  • Élevage des ovins
CONT

Il faut moins de capital pour établir un élevage de moutons qu'une exploitation bovine ou porcine. Sauf au moment de l'agnelage et de la tonte, la production ovine n'est pas exigeante en main-d'œuvre puisqu'une seule personne peut s'occuper de 300 à 400 brebis et de leurs agneaux tout en produisant également les aliments dont ils ont besoin.

Campo(s) temático(s)
