[NSW] 60cm Sheepskin for $20 @ IKEA (Marsden Park)

120

Saw this today in IKEA Marsden Park, cannot go wrong for $20 each. Not sure if it is country-wide.

Plenty of stock left, grabbed 4.

Note: Made in China, but feels really great. I believe all sheep are created equal ;-)

    Note: Made in China

    Do they have a big sheep industry there?

      Yes?

      The record-high China market sheepmeat prices reached during the second half of last year tempted smaller herders around the country to increase their sheep and goat flocks. Current GIRA estimates forecast the national sheep flock will increase 6.7% (or 11 million head) from 164 million head in 2019 to 175 million head in 2020. Forecasts have indicated that this will equate to an additional 175,000 tonnes cwt of sheepmeat being produced, taking total domestic production up to 2.64 million tonnes cwt.

      The top five countries by number of heads of sheep (average from 1993 to 2013) were: mainland China (146.5 million heads), Australia (101.1 million), India (62.1 million), Iran (51.7 million), and the former Sudan (46.2 million).

      No I think they primarily farm regular sized sheep.

        I thought maybe due to poor regulatory practices, they would be using growth hormones…
