Hanzhong sheep, primarily found in Ningqiang, Lueyang, and Mianxian counties of Shanxi province, China, are renowned for their suitability for meat production.
Adult Hanzhong rams typically weigh around 35 kilograms, while adult females weigh approximately 31 kilograms. Their wool is characterized by its moderate fineness, with a diameter ranging between 30 to 38 microns, and an average length of 8 to 10 centimeters.
These sheep are valued for their robust build and ability to thrive in the local environmental conditions, contributing to the meat production industry in the region.
