Their wool is classified as medium, with a fiber diameter of 25.5 to 33 microns, and a staple length between 50 to 90 mm.

Grazing Benefits: Grazing offers numerous environmental benefits and supports agricultural economies.

By grazing, Suffolk Down sheep help maintain healthy ecosystems, contribute to seed dispersal, and prevent forest fires. This natural activity improves the land by allowing animals to eat grass, fertilize the soil, and aerate the ground with their hooves. Grazing also produces flavorful, tender, and juicy meat, which can be prepared in a wide variety of ways. For recipes, check out our guide "How to Cook Lamb Meat."

The traditional practice of grazing eliminates the need for extra feed, fertilizers, or pesticides, making it a sustainable approach for farmers.
