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

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.
