How many sheep can you graze on 1 acre?

Answer 1

It depends on how big the field is, whether it is flat or sloping terrain, how many trees are in the field, whether there is a dam or shed in the field and how big the sheep are and whether they have recently been shorn or not.

Answer 2

It depends on the rainfall, the type of pasture and whether you are supplementary feeding. It also depends on the type of sheep, whether you wish to fatten them or get them pregnant and how much the sheep weigh on average I wouldn't run more than 8 DSE per hectare (to reduce the internal parasite burden) so that would be 3 or 4 large sheep per acre.
