In South America, sheep rearing is most important in the direr parts of Argentina including the whole of Patagonia, Tierra deal Fuego, western Argentina and the eastern foothills of the Andes.
The low and variable rainfall, the poor pasturage, the severe winter and the sparse population, all make the region more suitable for sheep grazing than for cattle rearing. The sheep ranchers are extremely large in Patagonia, covering several hundred thousands of hectares each, because it needs many hectares of this semi-arid land with its bunchy grasses to support a single sheep.
Argentina is an exporter of both wool and mutton and Patagonia alone contributes between a third and half to the national output.
