A sheep in the UK was sold for 3.32 million yuan, why is the price so high?

The main reason why this sheep is so expensive is because of its breed and what it does. Because it is a particularly delicious sheep, its breed name is "Texel sheep", and this sheep is very rare purebred, and this sheep happens to be a purebred. And its size is huge, the body is very burly, and it is a ram, so its role is to breed, to breed other purebred "Texel sheep".

The sheep had a starting price of £10,000** and was subsequently pushed up to £230,000 over the course of several auctions, where it was auctioned by the farmer. Therefore, when we look at the value of this sheep, we cannot simply look at its own value, but its role and the value that other sheep it has bred may have.

Because its mutton is fragrant and beautiful, the sheep bred are not sold. And it will be used for breeding on its own farm for a short period of time, so it can give birth to everything in a lifetime. The farmer can concentrate all these sheep in his own area, and at this time he can breed more high-quality breeds of rams, and he can sell them to others at a high price for a good profit.

So we should take a long-term view in this regard, and the farmers are not stupid, they know the value of this sheep, so they will buy it at all costs. More than 300 yuan may be unimaginable for us ordinary people. But for those of them who know its value, it's just a number, and the value of the sheep in the future is much more than that.

In addition, foreign farmers are relatively wealthy, and they are able to participate in various auctions, and they are not just such a sheep. In the auction of horses, all kinds of record records are endless, because we know more about horses, it is a very spiritual animal that can gallop on the grassland, Maxima, sweat and blood BMW are the breeds we are more familiar with, and we know their value. But for this sheep, many of us are so surprised because we don't know much about it, so we don't know its value.

This sheep is a breed from the Netherlands, and its meat is very popular in the UK because of its delicious flavor. But this "most expensive sheep in the world" is not used for slaughter, it is a top ram for breeding, which is why it is so high.

Because this sheep not only has excellent pedigree, but also has a strong breeding ability, it is able to shoot such a high **.

Every country has its own traditions, and the auction of the United Kingdom is also a tradition, just like the king of various vegetables and fruits every year.

The sheep are very cute. Very docile animal. On August 27, at a livestock auction in Scotland, England, a sheep was sold for a record 10,000 pounds (about 3.32 million yuan), becoming the most expensive sheep in the world.

What kind of sheep is this, and how can it be sold for such a high **? Let's take a closer look.

1. The most expensive sheep In the UK, the average lamb is about £100, but the quality rams used for breeding are much higher. The most expensive sheep, called Double Diamond, is an embryonic lamb bred by ewes, and its starting price is 10,000 pounds. Due to the love of the buyer, after a fierce bidding competition, the final transaction price was more than 300,000 pounds, and the three farmers bought it in partnership.

Seeing this, netizens joked that they were not as good as a sheep. Is this sheep really worth such a high **?

Second, the reason for the expensive information is that the "double diamond" is a Texel sheep, which is native to the Netherlands and is a fine wool sheep breed for meat. It is cross-bred from Lincoln and Lyster sheep and local sheep. It has the characteristics of multiple births, fast growth of lambs, large body, good meat and wool production, etc., and is one of the famous sheep breeds of meat fat sheep abroad.

It is a very good paternal breed for meat sheep breeding and economic crossbreeding. It has the characteristics of precocious puberty, multiple births, fast growth of lambs, good meat production performance, tolerance to rough feeding, strong adaptability, and high meat-to-bone ratio and meat-to-fat ratio under grazing conditions.

3. Used for breedingSome netizens speculated whether such an expensive sheep was used to slaughter, make mutton skewers or other meat products that were enough for the rich to eat? Not reallyThis "most expensive sheep in the world" is not used for slaughter, it is a top ram for breeding.

This sheep is named "Double Diamond" is a top ram used for breeding, this sheep adapts to the performance of the precocious, precocious, multi-birth, lamb growth fast, meat bones and meat quality has high characteristics, can produce more good quality, will bring more benefits to the farm, this is why it is expensive.

Because this sheep is a Texel sheep, it is the most popular lamb in the United Kingdom and the meat is delicious, but this sheep is not used to eat, but to breed offspring and create economic value.

Anyone who has studied economics knows one principle, that is, under the market economy system, commodities have value and use value. The commodity mechanism is the undifferentiated physical and mental labor condensed in the commodity. And sheep, as a commodity, must have its value.

For the vast majority of sheep, that is, ordinary sheep, their selling price is generally within an acceptable range. But scarcity is expensive, and when a sheep is particularly cherished, then its price will be very high.

Let's take a look at why the sheep that was recently auctioned at a livestock auction in the UK sold for such a high price. I think there are two main reasons.

One is that the breed and quality of this sheep are really good. The breed of the sheep participating in the auction is the Texel sheep, native to the Netherlands, which was crossed with local sheep from Lincoln and Lyster sheep, and has a fast growth rate, full muscle, good meat and hair quality, many litters, and strong adaptability. Speaking of which, did you ever think of a skewer of grilled and fragrant lamb skewers in front of you?

If so, that's right. The greatest value of sheep is nothing more than mutton and wool, and the sheep combines these two advantages. It's no wonder that it was filmed**.

It is also worth noting that if the sheep is photographed just for meat, it will be overkill. So in fact, they photographed this sheep mainly to be used as a breeding sheep to breed, sheep to give birth to sheep, sheep to regenerate sheep... There are more and more high-quality sheep, and the main purpose of the farmer is this.

Second, there is propaganda and exaggeration. Before the auction, the auctioneer will definitely hype up the various advantages of this sheep, and then add some text comments, **, **, etc., to set off a kind of effect of buying without loss. In such cases, it is understandable that the price of the commodity will often be higher than the actual value of the item.

Moreover, the person who photographed the sheep also hoped to make some "big news" to further promote the breed of the sheep, and also play a role in promoting its sales in the future.

Because this sheep is one in a million, has the best genes, and is treated the best, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rare beast.

Because this sheep is a very, very good breed in meat sheep breeding and economic crossbreeding, it has the advantages of multiple births, fast growth of lambs, good meat and wool production.

The sheep is a Kotselle sheep, produced in the Netherlands, a world famous breed, and the sheep belongs to the highest grade of breeding sheep, which is of great natural value to the farm, and its value is naturally rising.
