Some seventy million sheep are committed unconditionally to keeping the grasses cropped and to helping make the sheep farms look almost as manicured as the Swiss Alpine villages. About twenty million lambs slaughtered annually, frozen and exported, are the major source of income. The sheep also produce sheepskins and wool; even their bones are pulverized for fertilizer. Orchards are also prominent in various parts of the north and south islands, the fruits coming on so as to meet winter markets throughout Europe and North America. FIGURE 9.3 Natural beauty.
