Show Notes
A new report from the Wool Partnership highlights opportunities to boost the Irish sheep wool industry. The study, launched at ATU Mountbellew Agricultural College, explores how LEADER programs can strengthen the wool supply chain. Surveys show farmer interest in adding value to wool, with many open to local sales and collaborations. The report identifies challenges, such as the lack of small-scale wool cleaning facilities, and proposes solutions like micro-scale scouring plants. The partnership plans feasibility studies and pilot programs to link processing with yarn and clothing production, aiming to make Irish wool a commercial asset for rural areas.
