According to the website at the related link, New Zealand has approximately 40 million sheep.
Approx. 42 million.addendum. yes, that is correct, the national flock has about halved to 42 million sheep.
The ratio of sheep to people in New Zealand has been large for many years. It reached a peak in the years from the 1950s to the early 1980s.In 1950 the ratio was 18 sheep for every person in New Zealand, and from then until 1986 it varied between 18 and 22 sheep per person. It was 16 sheep per person in 1991. The sheep to person ratio has since dropped to 8 sheep per person for 2008. This is due to many farmers changing to more lucrative production, with the exact change depending on the region. Some major changes have been to beef, wine grape growing and dairy.

The size of the property and thus the number of sheep that can be grazed..
it was a place were sheep and maybe goats grazed.
hill sheep farming is commercial, pastoral and extensive and is used to produce wool, lamb and mutton
Usually this means how many stock units the land can support eg sheep per hectare
Cows and chickens, but sheep are grazed there other than in winter.
EXPORTS: wool - from the sheep that grazed on the crops and wine, i'm not sure where they went though
I got 25 sheep. :) But, there's no guarantee I did it correctly.
I hectare = 10 decares
1 hectare = 2.471 acres
1 Hectare= 8.9 Tumoli
Two acres is about 0.81 hectare.
