Rearing and Breeding of Sheep

Rearing of sheep means to look after the sheep by providing them food, shelter and health care. The persons who look after the sheep are called ‘shepherds.’ Sheep are herbivores and eat mainly grass and leaves. So, shepherds take their herds of sheep to countryside for grazing. Apart from grazing, sheep rearers also feed them a mixture of pulses, corn, jowar and minerals. In India, sheep are reared in the hilly regions of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh.
