Merino wool
As part of our goals of diversity and regenerative agriculture, we are integrating sheep into our mix of beef, cereal, and seed productions in Uruguay.
Reintroducing Merino sheep on our farm, Doña Maria, brings the history and culture back to the pastoral landscape. Doña Maria, with its vast acreage of virgin grasslands, has the perfect mix of soils, climate, grass, infrastructure, and know-how to produce high-quality Merino wool together with its cattle breeding operation.
With high-quality wool in mind, we bought the first lot of ewes from a well-recognised breeder in Uruguay in 2019, and we are targeting wool of 18 microns, otherwise known as the superfine category.
We shear our sheep annually
