This day investigates how sheep farming has developed in the Netherlands (and similar contexts), why sheep are kept today, and why wool has become a low-value byproduct. It blends a bit of history with a systemic view: how did we get to a point where raising sheep is mostly for meat or land management, and wool is nearly worthless? We will explore what a regenerative agricultural system could look like and how sheep-farming could fit within that system. Most importantly, we seek to understand the characteristics and challenges of modern-day agriculture.
