Sheep Ranch Improves Soil Health; Gains Marketing Advantage for Wool
For nearly a decade, ranch owner Lani Estill has worked with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to improve soil health. Her operation, Bare Ranch, is now marketing “climate beneficial” wool to a national clothing manufacture. She raises sheep and cattle on her 40,000-acre ranch, which sits on the border of northern California and northwest Nevada. (Image by Paige Green.)
