Most of the wool used for the production of clothing comes from merino sheep. Merino sheep is the oldest and most widespread breed of sheep. Merino sheep grow 10 times more hair per square centimeter than the average sheep and produce up to 5 kilos of wool per year. In the Netherlands, sheep are mainly bred for meat or grazing. The wool of the Dutch sheep is thick and therefore less suitable for wool production. Merino sheep are primarily bred in New Zealand and Australia.

Peasants of Nederweert
Nearly 30 local farmers have come together in the Boeren van Nederweert association since 2016. On the website tell farmers who they are and what goes on behind their barn door and they showcase the value of the agricultural sector based on various themes. And that’s not all. In order to overcome contradictions and resolve dilemmas in the countryside, the association actively seeks a dialogue with the environment. Farmers and citizens side by side. They need each other. Together they form the municipality of Nederweert, today and tomorrow.
