Sustainability has to do with the welfare of animals and the environment. It has to do with ethical practices in the sheep industry. One example of this is minimizing the amounts of water used on the farm through efficient irrigation and responsible land management. Energy efficiency interventions include using renewable energy on the farm: in example, for the shearing and processing shears to reduce their associated carbon footprints. Innovative production techniques such as restorative grazing also go a step further toward increases in sequestering carbon and soil health. Designs built towards very minimal waste and recyclability further accentuate the commitment by the industry to minimize and temper its effects on the environment. Responsible sourcing defines itself as using B2B networks and directories to connect stakeholders with ethically minded suppliers for transparency and accountability all through the value chain in the growing trend toward sustainable products and practices. This indeed is likely to be one of the defining characteristics of resilient futures for and success in the Sheep industry.
