Abstract
In-wintering of sheep, uncommon in Britain, is seen as a possible means of increasing profitability on lowland farms and on the more accessible hill farms. Experience at Cockle Park gained since 1961/62 is summarized and favourable aspects are listed. Gross margins of £30 per acre, or even more, are likely to be achieved—double the expectation from the normal stocking of two ewes per forage acre. The need for extended investigation is stressed.
