With 70-75% of lamb consumed in the U.S. imported from other countries, solar grazing presents an important opportunity to expand domestic lamb production. For our January webinar, ASGA is partnering with the American Lamb Board to help solar graziers and solar companies understand lamb marketing opportunities. 

The sheep industry markets lambs through two primary channels, often referred to as the traditional and non-traditional markets. Opportunities exist in the traditional markets with the expansion of the U.S. sheep industry through various segments, one of which is solar grazing. At the webinar, representatives of two of the largest first handlers or processors, Superior Farms and Wolverine Packing, will share their experiences and describe marketing opportunities from lamb contracts to carcass preferences of retail and food service customers.
