ONLINE SHEEP MANAGEMENT CLASSES
The Pipestone Lamb & Wool Program offers these online
courses.
"Introduction to Sheep Management" is a 14 lesson
self-paced course with continuous enrollment. It is the online
version of the successful home study course that provides an
overview of year long sheep management.
The other two courses, "Introduction to Sheep Diseases"
and "Ewe Ration Formulation" are more structured and
are designed for more interaction.
The purpose of the program is to help sheep producers increase
income and profit per ewe and realize the full potential of all
sheep through modern management practices, new technologies and
new approaches to marketing both lamb and wool.
