Sheep Farming in 2020 |

Ryan and Romy Schill own and operate Circle R Livestock, a sheep operation located in Wallenstein, Ontario. They started farming in 2015 with 25 head of sheep and grew to almost 1000 ewes by 2018. They operate on 100 owned and 50 rented acres.

In this session, Ryan and Romy will walk through their farm and discuss decisions they have made regarding breeding stock, selling, barn versus pasture, feeding rations and why each group of sheep get the ration that they do.

As all farmers, they were concerned about COVID-19 affecting their business. Learn what external factors impacted this sheep farm, how they have adapted and what their future plans are.
