Sheep keeping in Libya is based mainly on the fat-tailed Barbary sheep, alongside local goats and camels in the desert and the south. Flocks are concentrated in Jabal Akhdar, the Barqa plains, the Western Mountains and the coastal areas.

Systems range from grazing seasonal pastures after the rains to intensive keeping based on barley and purchased feed. Local demand rises sharply at Eid, and the market partly relies on imported livestock.

What breeders face

  • Rain-dependent pasturePasture changes from year to year, and dry years increase reliance on barley and feed.
  • Fluctuating feed pricesChanging barley and feed prices make cost per head essential before setting a sale price.
  • Eid season pressureGetting lambs to the right weight before Eid requires planning mating and fattening months ahead.
  • Irregular recordsBirth and vaccination dates and ewe numbers often stay in memory and get lost as the flock grows.

How Throf helps

  • Feed stock and mealsRecord meals and feed stock in kg to see the flock's consumption in dry years.
  • Cost per head and net profitExpenses and sales are calculated automatically so you know cost per head before you set a price.
  • Mating and fattening planningFollow mating, pregnancy, lambing and fattening stages so lambs reach Eid at the right weight.
  • A digital record per animalNumber, tag colour, breed, dam, sire and vaccinations in one record, with import from Excel.

Seasons that matter

Eid al-Adha is Libya's most important season for lamb sales, followed by Ramadan and weddings, and supply depends on the rainy season and pasture condition.
