- Sheep are hardy animals that are suited
to a wide range of conditions. They can be kept in the open for much of
the year. Most important sheep product is meat, particularly lamb. Wool
is a by-product and now forms less than 5 per cent of the income from
sheep
- Although India is a world leader in the production of
livestock, its market for meat and meat products is small compared with
that of most developed nations - most of its livestock is reared for the
production of milk, eggs and wool
-
According to FAO the world production of Sheep meat was 8.63 million
tones and Goat meat was 4.94 million tones in 2006. India ranked seventh
in sheep and second in goat meat production. India’s export of
sheep/goat meat was 5481.55 mt with the valued of Rs. 63.04 crores (USD
Million 13.98) in 2006-07. .
- The major destinations for export of
Indian sheep/goat meat are Saudi Arabia, U.A.E, Qatar, Oman and Kuwait
-
Goat meat has no religious inhibitions and
is consumed by all the religions and races in the country. Goat milk is
source of cheap protein for the poor people and has medicinal
properties. Goats are also major sources of leather and leather products
in the country
-
Amongst the States, Rajasthan has the
maximum number of Sheep and Jammu and Kashmir has the highest number of
cross bred sheep
- India is the
seventh largest producer of wool and contributes 1.8% to total world
production. The production of indigenous raw wool in 2006-07 was 45
mn.kg. Of the total production of raw wool, 5% is apparel grade, 85%
carpet grade, and 10% coarse grade. The domestic produce is
not adequate, therefore, the industry is dependent on imported raw
material and wool is the only
natural fibre in which the country is deficient. -
Sheep meat consumption (and production)
growth will be driven by China
-
