About Swiss White Alpine SheepAbout Swiss White Alpine Sheep



Swiss White Alpine sheep, renowned for their short wool and suitability for meat production, trace their origins back to Switzerland in 1936. This breed was developed through a deliberate crossbreeding program that involved mating the Swiss White Mountain with 50 to 75% Ile-de-France sheep.

The deliberate crossing of these two distinct breeds aimed to capitalize on the desirable traits exhibited by each parent breed. The Swiss White Alpine sheep inherited their robustness and adaptability from the Swiss White Mountain, a breed known for thriving in alpine environments and displaying excellent hardiness. Meanwhile, the infusion of Ile-de-France genetics brought forth traits such as rapid growth, muscular development, and superior meat quality.

The resulting Swiss White Alpine sheep embody a harmonious blend of these characteristics, making them well-suited for meat production in various agricultural settings. With their strong constitution, adaptability to different environmental conditions, and superior meat yield, Swiss White Alpine sheep continue to be valued assets in the livestock industry.
