... hair sheep
We are considering a few hair sheep to use for weed control.
I've worked with cattle, goats, pigs, chickens, lots; and only a little with sheep.
Question: we need to know what the sheep will and (probably) won't eat.
For example, stuff we need eaten: ageratum, grasses, 'sleeping grass'/thorny-crawling mimosa, albizia seedlings, etc.
Stuff we do not need eaten, especially young: banana, papaya, coffee, etc?
