Quality control in sheep farming

Quality control in sheep farming is intended to improve sheep husbandry, ensure safe products, and strengthen farmers' income. The project covers land use, individual animal tagging, record-keeping, animal care, housing conditions, feed procurement, and medication use.

The role of Land and Forests is to:

  • assess and confirm the quality of grazing land

  • ensure that grazing land is used sustainably

  • monitor the condition of the land, conduct assessments, and provide advice on land use and land improvements
