This is good news
for Chile, where water scarcity is becoming increasingly prominent.
Chile's ExtraNoticias network daily reported on November 27 that Hidango is considered to be the most fertile sheep breed
in Chile.
Researchers say that 1 Hidango ew can produce 3 lambs in 2 years, which means that 100 Hidango ewes can produce an average of 170 lambs
per year.
As a result, fewer ewes are used for breeding, and so does the consumption of pastures and water, which is good news
for sheep producers in the drylands along the coast, and for Chile, where water scarcity is a growing problem.
