Maybe it’s propaganda, but the excellent show “Clarkson’s Farm” has sheep shearing in it. It seems good enough to the animals.

- Gordonjcp 3y agoClarkson's Farm is a pretty honest depiction of what it's like for small-to-medium scale farmers in the UK. Except the bit where he made 140 quid profit, most folk make anything like as much as that.
- uhtred 3y ago99% of the world's wool doesn't come from small to medium farms.
- Gordonjcp 3y agoNot these days it doesn't, because the Wool Marketing Board pays five pence per kilo for wool. When you compare what you get selling it with the cost of having it collected and graded, and the current price of diesel, it's cheaper to just fire up the JCB, dig a hole, and bury the fucking stuff.
