| Abstract
|
:
|
"The Sheep Book is widely recognized as a classic. Ron Parker brings together a farmer's day-by-day practical experience and a scientist's rigorous mind in a gracefully written narrative. In this revised edition, he updates many aspects of sheep stewardship - such as new or newly banned medications, progress in reproductive technology, popular new sheep breeds, and the growing dairy sheep field. Updated nutrition tables, as well as email and web addresses, further enhance the sensible advice and gentle wit of The Sheep Book."--Jacket.
