OPP Concerned Sheep Breeders Society
“We are convinced that healthy disease free sheep live longer, produce more and earn more income. The sheep industry as a whole needs to reduce, control and possibly eradicate those diseases that cost producer income, and call into question the safety of the product to the consumer.”
