The kind of farming can be on highland or lowland. Grass grows very well in wet climate, so most of the farming is animal farming. You find sheep everywhere on the highlands or lowlands. But farmers in rich lowland very often keep cattle, that is , cows for milk. Sheep farms cover a half of all the land in New Zealand. Only the very wet areas and the highest mountains are no good for sheep. The sheep farms are called sheep stations. There are over 30,000 stations in North and South Islands, with sixty million sheep. The native grass of the country is not very rich. So the farmers got better grass seeds from Europe and America and plant good grass. The sheep give good meat and good wool. Most of the meat and wool is exported. Until 1882 only the wool was exported. New Zealand farmers sold the wool to factories in Britain. The sea journey to Britain was very long and slow, so meat could not be exported. But in 1882 the refrigerator was invented, and the ship could keep the meat cold. So meat could be exported. Most of the meat exported today is lamb, not mutton. Lamb is the meat of young sheep, while mutton is the meat of fully grown sheep. 1. The sheep farm are __________ .
