Baby camel wool versus goat cashmere: Which is really better?
Mongolia, with over 65 million head of livestock freely grazing on natural rangelands, has much to offer to the world’s consumers when it comes to eco-friendly products of animal origin. Besides goat cashmere, Mongolia has the potential to offer other high quality natural fibres to the market, such as camel wool, yak down, and sheep wool. As part of its goal to support eco-friendly production, thereby ensuring sustainable rangeland management and increasing the income of herder families, the Green Gold Project of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation in Mongolia has been working to improve the value of yak down and camel wool over the last decade.
