For what it regards the meat it is necessary to say that, although the production of the meat is the Sardinian sheep to lattifera attitude also has one its importanza.Infatti much demand on the market the meat for the lamb between the 8 and 10 kg of weight, while in its zones of origin the meat of the adult subjects employed in the preparation of various plates of the tradition has a good reply of market also sarda.Infine the production of the wool has a marginal role being of qualit rough, adapted for carpets and mattresses.
