Who is the world’s largest exporter of beef and wool?
You guessed it mate, it’s Australia. With 24 million head of cattle Australia is the world’s largest exporter of beef. Wool is one of Australia’s most stable exports over the last 100+ years. Australia’s 140 million sheep, found on around 53,000 farms, produce more than 70% of the world’s wool. If you are wearing a woolen sweater made in China or other Asian/European countries, there is a good chance that the wool is from Australia.
