[QUOTE="NZDan, post: 6973063, member: 1037"] Cleanskin ewe flocks are my fastest growing breed group on my scanning run, nearly 10% of the ewes I scan are either cleanskin of have started on the cleanskin journey, this is up from less than 1% three years ago. many had started on the lower micron parth but with out a significant jump down to low 20micron they are simply going from producing strong wool to producing lower micron wool at zero profit. 28micron wool is selling for $1.50 kg, break even is about $2/kg. Mind strong wool is around the $0.80 to $1 mark. On current prices and costs a Romney ewe flock in NZ shows and $11 loss per ewe for wool. [/QUOTE]
