Yes, but it depends on ever-changing markets. Australia's economy literally grew "off the sheep's back" in the 1800s, and the wool industry has helped sustain the economy ever since. However, in recent years, massive changes in demand from year to year have seen sheep farmers hover between having stockpiles of wool that no one wants to buy, to having their product in high demand.
