The Sheep Sustainability Framework defines sustainable sheep production in Australia, prioritises industry issues and measures industry performance against relevant indicators.
It means producing sheep meat and wool by current and future generations in an ethical and environmentally, socially, and financially responsible manner.
Learn more about the Sheep Sustainability Framework and the meaning of sustainable sheep meat and wool production from our Australian industry stakeholders and customers.
Demonstration of sustainable production of sheep meat and wool is critical to secure access to local and global markets. Customers want to feel confident that the food and fibre they purchase has been responsibly produced.
The Framework was built using a 2019 materiality review and through specific and extensive consultation with both industry and external stakeholders.
Led by the Sustainability Steering Group (SSG), the three-stage stakeholder consultation process began in January 2020 and was completed in December 2020.
